all it was pretty quite.   Maria Stockmal Branford  

. If your in the area looking for the Eurasian Wigeon you might want to head across town to Hanover Pond. Hooded Mergs are growing in numbers and there are a couple Imm Bald Eagles that have called the pond home over the past couple weeks. Geese have been growing in numbers in the Wallingford/Durham area. Surprisingly they seem to all be all Canada Geese except for the Cackling Geese that I have previously reported. Today I found both of them, one at Macenzie Reservoir and one in the Cheshire Industrial Park. I also wandered down to Newtown to see what Geese were around. At the Ram Pasture which is located at the intersection of Rte 25 and 302 we found a huge flock of Geese with 1 Greater White-fronted Goose and 13 hybrid GWF/Canada Geese. I have been having fun with the Geese this year and I was wondering if there were any good books out there on Geese. Any info would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!!
