Observation details

In a grassy area near Montrose Beach, a single greater white-fronted goose was with several Canada Geese, appearing smaller and slimmer with a shorter neck and rounder head. It showed a distinct white blaze at the base of a bright orange-pink bill, orange legs, and a pale belly marked with dark bars—clearly different from the plain-bellied, black-necked Canada Geese around it.
