Sunken Meadow State Park, Barrow's Goldeneye, Ross's Goose

 I went to Sunken Meadow State Park since there were reports of a continuing immature drake Barrow's Goldeneye in the "river" that flows between the sound and a marshy area.  I was able to find it easily enough and get OK photos - I had only seen a Barrow's Goldeneye once before and it was far away.  On the way, I spotted a flock of a geese with a white goose in the mix - turned out to be a Ross's Goose - there was some talk from another birder that it has been around a few days, but not really reported.  There was a recent ebird report but was only flying, didn't land.
