October is an excellent month to visit Goose Pond Sanctuary to enjoy nature. It is rare to have ideal shorebird habitat and some water for waterfowl, but recently, the sanctuary provided habitat for both.

We thought it would be interesting to look at the high counts for the 36 species of waterfowl (ducks, geese, and swans) on our Goose Pond bird list. There have been 3,500 checklists from Goose Pond entered on eBird, and about 1 in a 100 checklists included a high count of waterfowl.
