Snow Goose - immature, with Canada Geese, Turner's Falls power canal, Franklin Co., MA. January 3rd, 2016.
This evening an immature Snow Goose flew into to the Turner's Falls power canal with a small flock of Canada Geese. Almost certainly, it was the same immature that I noted in Gill on January 1st. Other than the continuing Lesser and Greater Scaups, the power canal was rather quiet with very few gulls and no other geese of interest.

Earlier in the day, I found the roadsides in Gill to be full of birds, especially Dark-eyed Juncos (c.250) and American Robins (c.120). Also of note in Gill, a Northern Flicker, a Purple Finch and at least two Pine Siskins. Indeed, good numbers of American Robins seemed to be present at several locations today including c.150 on Federal Street in Greenfield and around 250 at the Turner's Falls power canal. One or two Cedar Waxwings were with them.
