Joined by my son Matt, visiting from California, I saw the lone
White-Fronted Goose amid large numbers of Canada Geese.  It was quite near
the boardwalk, taking a snooze perched upon a single orange leg. We had a
glorious mid-day at Huntley Meadows, with excellent light.

Other sightings:

Pileated Woodpecker
Downy Woodpecker
Song Sparrow
White-Throated Sparrow
Swamp Sparrow
Northern Cardinal
Dark-Eyed Junco
Green-Winged Teal
Northern Pintail
Northern Shoveler
Mallard
Bald Eagle
Ring-Billed Gull
Red-Winged Blackbird.

No Horned Greebes to be had.
