Bev Long-Welch photographed a Barnacle Goose along the Otonabee River in Peterborough today (March 10). It was posted on a private Facebook group and those are all the details available.
If searching, there are three main areas geese tend to congregate along the Otonabee River in Peterborough: Little Lake in downtown Peterborough, Auburn Reach Park near the north end (best viewed from Water Street side of river), and above Lock 25 south of Lakefield.
