Howdy all,
There has been a spate of reports of oversummering Cackling Geese in
Tennessee in recent weeks, from several different locations and by
different observers. Granted, anything is possible in the bird world,
and this is a recently recognized species whose distribution and
identification are still being worked out. Still, there are no
previous summer records from Tennessee. Indeed there are very few
summer records at all in the lower 48 outside of the core wintering
areas in the southern plains and west coast. It would be very nice
if someone could photograph at least one of these geese, and perhaps
even write it up for the Bird Records Committee.
