I found an on-line article regarding a Bean Goose found at Whitehorse, Yukon
in October of 1999.

http://www.digimages.info/oiemoi/beangoose-yukon.pdf

At one point, the author discusses and compares it to a pink-footed.
Notably, he concludes his goose can not be a pink-footed because a., it is
not "petite" compared to a nearby greater white-fronted goose, and it has a
brown back, compared to the grey back of a pink-footed. Ruth states the
goose at Bowerman Basin has a grey back. Is it very small compared to the
greater white-fronted?

Just wondering!
