2/23/20 Litchfield, White Memorial - Little Pond the greater white fronted goose flock of 34 is continuing on the ice best seen from the bridge they flew in at 9:45 this morning and are now just resting.  They were easy to count as they were all spread out on the edge of the ice many standing up with all the orange legs in view.

Just after I made this post I drove over to Bantam Lake which is frozen and the greater white fronted goose flock flew over circled the lake a few times and then went down slightly towards the west of the town boat launch.  I think it is likely they are in some farm field.
