At 5:05 pm today, we saw one Ross's Goose and one Snow Goose in Roane
County from a pullout on Swan Pond Circle (off Swan Pond Road). They were
in the big pond next to the sports complex at the Gupton Wetland area. The
Ross's was in water on the north side of the rock dike, and the Snow was in
the water on the south side. After several minutes, each bird moved
separately to the grass between the Gupton Wetland and the restrooms. Both
disappeared by 5:50.
