Observation details

Continuing! Refound here by Debbie and David Suggs earlier today and by the original finder, Tim Lenz, at about 4:50 this afternoon. Distant but not extreme scope views in good light. With thousands of SNGO on the water. Roughly SNGO size but head and bill were slightly larger. Dark brownish goose with white horizontal flank line and pale parallel edgings on upperparts. White vent/ undertail coverts. Head very dark. Bill dark with pinkish subterminal band that extended back only slightly on sides of bill. Upperparts browner, less grayish than on PFGO. Also, breast lacked cinnamon tinge, bill seemed slightly larger. Bill shorter, head and bill profile less sloping than Taiga BG, with sharper angle at bill base. Poor but supportive digiscoped photo.
