Ross's Goose

Sandy McRuer reported a Ross's Goose in Port Alberni on Friday, and since it was raining so hard in Nanoose I thought, what the heck, it can't rain any harder in Port Alberni...
That was sarcasm, in case you missed it. At any rate, I made way across the hump and through the storm and found the Ross's Goose very easily near the corner of River Rd and Josephine Rd. This is the second record of this species in Port Alberni this fall, where there are no previous records.
