Ok, Rick. Kelly and I will call your 2 Rufous hummers and
7 White-fronted Geese and (with a little help from our
friends) raise you 4 Rufous hummers, 1 Ruby-throated, 1
White-fronted Goose, 1 immature white-morph Snow Goose
AND 1 immature blue-morph Snow Goose! :-)
Early Saturday morning, Janet McKnight went to get her life
Ross's Goose at Pellissippi State in west Knox County where
David Howell reported one to me earlier this week. Janet
not only found the Ross's but also found an immature Greater
White-fronted Goose at the pond. She called Jean Alexander
who called me.
After tagging along with Chris Sloan catching hummers, Kelly
Roy and I stopped by Pellissippi State to look for the geese.
We quickly spotted the immature white-morph Snow Goose, then
Kelly spotted an immature blue-morph Snow Goose! Then I
spotted the immature white-fronted that Janet had reported.
Like Carole Gobert, we did not see the Ross's. However, of the
10 or so banded Canada's we saw, none were the ones I saw with
the Ross's earlier this week so there is hope that it is still
around here, just moving around the area.
Again, these geese were all at the pond at Pellissippi State
off of Pellissippi Parkway in west Knox County.
Oh, and we had the 3 Muscovies there, too.
