Dear all
I was quite surprised this morning to find a Ross' Goose among a group of
about 10 Canada Geese on a small pond in Williamson County in Fernvale. I'm
not used to having exotic birds in my backyard.

If you're interested in seeing it, the pond is on the section of Old Harding
Rd that goes into Williamson Co., southwest from Rt 96. There's a sign on Rt
96 that says to Fernvale. The pond is on the north side of the road (on the
right), about 5 miles from the junction with 96. It's the only pond in the
area.
