I have not seen one there Megan but I would not be surprised if you did, the
description of its call is spot on, I have a recording of them done last
year from Ocean Shores for you to listen to

Dear Tweeters,

Has anyone recently seen a Greater White-fronted Goose at the Montlake
Fill? I was there Sunday, March 7, 2:30 pm and saw what I believe to be a
Greater White-fronted Goose; however, it's legs were a fleshy pink and there
was a black tip on the end of a pinkish bill. It also had a high-pitched
call; higher than its Canada companions. Thanks in advance for any more
information on this bird....
