Title: Goose
Post by: MikeIrwin on March 10, 2009, 07:51:04 PM

Well, I took this shot on Friday up at the St Clair National Wildlife Area on Friday. I had originally decided that the geese were Snow Geese (based mostly on probability, there were around 6-7 in total of which these two were the closest). The recent B-Mail posting of 22 Ross at Wheatley has brought me back to the ID as my first impression was that they had stubby little beaks.

Any insights or opinions would be appreciated!

Yep they look like Ross's Geese to me.
