Observation details
Black smile patch, black wingtips and all white Goose. An occasional winter visitor, and not sure what stress this bird is under with the intense cold temperatures of 0 degrees plus wind chill . This is on private property so be cautious. Verified with photos. Graham and I tracking down the Snow Goose reported on a Manset field. Brutally cold. 0F steady NWWinds. We located this adult Snow Goose and varified that it is indeed a SNGO with clearly evident Black smile patch on the brillant orange bill, balck wing tips seen well and photographed. This is my FOY SNGO. It has been a few years since there has been a SNGO on the island. Several have been reported overhead flying.
