HI ALL:
I found a small Canada Goose today here on Bainbridge Island that seems
to me to be too grayish in color to be a Cackling Goose. I was thinking it
might be a ALeutian Goose but it lacks the white neck collar. Does anyone
have a really good reference on how to separate the two in the field?
Sincerely
