Saturday's snow goose was a pristine white bird, the snow goose on Sunday was a dingy immature bird. On 14 April 2015, I saw four snow geese in this location with Keith Lowe and Paolo Matteuci, they have photos of these four. One was a dingy blue/grey and three were white. The bird on Sunday was a dingy blue/grey. So there are still at least two snow geese in the area. Cheers, George Forsyth Quoting "George E.
