fatchance:

Snow geese (Anser caerulescens) and Ross’s geese (Anser rossii), at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, New Mexico. The Ross’s are the smaller birds. They also lack the black grin patch found on a snow goose’s lower bill.

Tags: birds, well, ..., rogo, to me, if I were more obsessive, i might have seen these this year, i tried a couple of times, but never spotted one of the few that were around, it's interesting, that my obsession with the county year list thing, has declined to a healthier level, now i'm mostly just thinking about my county LIFE list, which is a much slower/less-frenetic obsession, mostly.
