Serendipitously, I finally saw the Snow Goose at Cutler Wetlands - thanks to Roxanne Featherly. Roxanne had her scope focused on the elusive goose, while looking west from the berm on the east side of S.W. 97th Avenue.- just south of the "No Dumping" sign. The bird was there from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. Other good birds in the wetlands were Roseate Spoonbills, Wood Storks, White Pelicans, Blue-winged and Green-Winged Teal,Cave and Barn Swallows, keeking Long-billed Dowitchers and Stilt Sandpipers with their sewing machine-like feeding behavior. Life is good..........seeing a new Miami-Dade County bird. I will quaff a Snow Goose Winter Ale that I have been holding in abeyance for this momentous occasion - which was not easy - as my celebratory libation.
