Sundays Cackling..and throw in an eagle too
- Reported Dec 22, 2024 09:07 by Forrest Wickman
- Prospect Park, Kings, New York
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&q=40.6602841,-73.9689534&ll=40.6602841,-73.9689534
- Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S206243767
- Comments: "Fairly rare—only my second ever in the park, at least when it comes to one I feel comfortable enough identifying and listing, and my first this year—and sometimes a difficult ID, though this bird immediately stood out as not only being very short-necked and small-bodied (even among a flock of already small Canada Geese) and having a steep forehead, but for its tiny, stubby bill, which was almost invisible at a distance until I raised my binoculars. Still, because this can be a tough ID, I quickly texted photos to other trusted birders and took to the Discord asking for second opinions, and everyone agreed that it was a Cackler. Unfortunately, less than a half hour after I first saw the bird and started to get out word, it took off with its whole flock, headed SW. A few of us combed the lake for about an hour after that, but no other geese that even seemed to be promising Cackling candidates remained on the lake. Photos."

- Comments: "Continuing, originally found earlier in the day by Josh Malbin. Dark first-cycle bird with scaly, light brownish gray upperparts and gray-white-flecked body and head. Beady little eye, pink legs, and bulky pink bill with a black tip. Primaries subtly patterned but light overall when compared to reference images of Nelson’s Gull. Overall, a hefty gull — far larger than nearby RBGU — but its scale was most apparent once it took to the water. Chris and I observed it briefly on the pier amid the Rock Pigeons before it flew east toward the Army Terminal and landed in the cove south of the pier. Photos."
