Today there was a large flock (125) of Canada Geese at Charlotte Town  
Beach, with one odd one mixed in. This was a noticeably smaller goose  
with the same general coloring as the Canadas but with a smaller bill  
and a head that looked like a circle rather than an oval. Its chin  
strap also looked thinner than on the other geese present. I’m  
assuming it was a Cackling Goose, but I’d love it if someone else  
would take a look and either confirm or correct.

Thanks!
