We drove up to Lily Lake looking for Canada Geese. Not for the Geese themselves (not that there is anything wrong with Canada Geese) but for the visitor who may be dining with them. A stop in the morning produced a Tundra Swan, lots of American Wigeon and Hooded Merganser male and females but no Geese. This time, at around 1:30 PM the Geese were present. Now with a little luck we would see our first Barnacle Goose. This one had been reported around Cape May for over a week but I had struck out in my previous attempt. So we were happy to quickly find him/her and got some pretty good pictures despite optimal sun conditions.
