Observation details
Small short-necked goose with a short stubby bill. Head blocky, steep forehead angles to flat crown. Size difference to Canada Goose apparent in pictures. I caught sight of it on one of my scans with my bins but it was a bit distant so I went to get my scope to verify. Excellent views with my scope. Pictures a bit distant but nonetheless are good enough for an I.D. after enlarging them. It took off with a flock of about 30-40 Canada Geese and flew south at exactly 1:55 P.M. All the Geese were present upon my arrival and none took off until 1:55 P.M. I was able to capture a few more photo's of it flying.
