Observation details
Continuing bird for several days now, reported as Ross's by at least one highly experienced birder. It was noticeably smaller than the surrounding Canadas, although I am not experienced with Ross's Geese and I observed it at a distance in poor lighting. Its bill looked short and stubby and I didn't see a grin patch, but then again I wasn't close enough to pick up much on the bill. I was able to see enough grayish smudging on this bird to see that it was an immature. The smudging was pretty neatly concentrated to just a few areas, consistent with most Ross's Goose photos I have seen.
