Alex- That is the one....thanks for the clarification. Are you sure it was a Snow Goose? I've been to Konold's Pond quite regularly recently (virtually daily) and I have regularly seen a domestic, all-white, Canada-sized (too big for Snow) goose with a yellow (not orangey-pink) grin-patch-less, almost duck-like bill. It has been continuously associating with a Canada and has been hanging out on the shore of the little island (near many of the Wood Ducks). Are we talking about the same bird? --Alex CoffeyWoodbridge On 3/13/07, Craig Repasz <crepasz@hotmail.com> wrote: A brief outing last night 12Mar07, yielded four pairs of wood ducks, one pied billed grebe, large number of ringnecks, common mergansers, hooded mergansers and a white phased snow goose._________________________________________________________________ Explore the seven wonders of the worldhttp://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=7+wonders+world&mkt=en-US&form=QBRE _______________________________________________This list is provided by the Connecticut Ornithological Association (COA) for the discussion of birds and birding in Connecticut.For subscription information visit http://lists.ctbirding.org/mailman/listinfo/ctbirds_lists.ctbirding.org _________________________________________________________________ Discover the new Windows Vista http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=windows+vista&mkt=en-US&form=QBRE
