Sue Bishop: Great find, Brian!
Brian Morin: This bird is still present, found recently near Toronto. This is currently the only Barnacle Goose in North America, a bird that arrived last spring, likely from Iceland.

Ottawa - This is the same bird I saw early last month. It had moved from its original site for severeal weeks then turned up in the west end of the city in an equestrian park. Nice quiet site with plenty of grassy areas to feed and a nice pond. It has molted most of the worn feathers it showed in June.

A lifer for me. This Barnacle Goose was seen on the Richelieu River at St-Jean, together with Canada Geese. The cold, windy November weather was not great for photography but still made for an unforgettable day. Hopefully he finds his way...
