[se-mi-birdlist] Blue goose, pintail: Manchester/Thorn Lake

[Craig Bateman]

Kevin Welsh and I also had a Greater White-fronted Goose as well as a single
Cackling Goose at Thorn Lake today. The GWFG was only actually seen flying
in, but due to the hilly surroundings and limited accessibility we couldn't
refind it. There were geese and ducks constantly flying in and out so keep a
lookout for anything new if you go.

Here's some a couple pictures from the trip:
