I typically stop at the Fox River in Waukesha for a birding stop in winter months and this morning there were a very large number of Canada Geese. The most I have seen this winter 500-600, they were the length of the river in town, bridge to bridge. I took my bins an started going through them and one caught my eye. The head coloring was different so I got out of the car for some quick photos as birds can leave in seconds. This turns out to be a Quill Lake Goose. It remained there, I watched it for about 5 minutes and then left. It was a cloudy day with a few rain drops coming down, but mild temps around 44 degrees. Images were taken on December 27, 2024.
