Observation details
Surprised to see two fresh juvenile Snow Geese swimming in lake and loosely associated with domestic type geese and Canada Geese. They were much smaller than domestic geese large Canada Geese. The bodies were slightly off-white but the primaries appeared mostly black and the other remiges were dark centered but had contrasting pale edging unlike the primaries. The head were sloped and had dingy white coloration. The bills were of medium size and appeared dark gray with a clear grin patch. The size, bill shape,and darker color eliminate Ross's Goose. I'm traveling and add photos later. I understand this is an early arrival date. They were observed in section of lake north of 14th street
