My cell phones battery had died. So I couldn’t take a picture. A Goose flew across the field landed in the middle. Its movement look and size Immediately caught my attention As some thing I don’t normally see. It was a cold day with snow on the ground. I stood at the edge of the field and quietly observed it for as long as I could looking for any identification details I might need when later referring to my Sibley‘s bird guide. It was solitary. I believe it was either a Rosses goose or a snow goose or a hybrid as that is possible. According to Sibley‘s guide this is a rare sighting. The goose that I saw was very white with darker beak darker legs and prominent black wing tips. It appears to me that snow goose geese have more color in their feathers both as juvenile and adult that color was not present on the bird that I saw. I definitely noticed it’s pronounced whiteness and shorter neck.
