It is unusual to see two rarities in a day. Saturday was one of those days. The Johnsons from Eldorado told us of the three Snow Geese that were hanging around the water treatment ponds there. We ran down there to check them out. Lo and behold, not only did we see the geese, but discovered that there was only one Snow Goose. The other two were Ross’s Geese. Both species are rare to this area. Here is one of the photos that I obtained while there.
The Ross’s Goose is another lifer for our list.
Very cool that you got to see these and photograph them. 🙂
Yes, it was lucky to have them together in one photo. Thanks for the comment, Alison.
After the previous post, I have nothing to say!!
Actually it was the first post that left me wordless!!
Wow…what a great find..I haven’t seen these birds since I left the Klamath Falls area of Oregon. they are really delightful geese.
As I said to H.J., I got lucky again. Thanks, Syl.
That was a good tip Bob! You came out a winner… twice! 🙂
Yeah, I got lucky again, H.J.
Good things happen when you gander for geese. 🙂
Thanks for the cute line, Toby. Merry Christmas to you and yours. 🙂
Merry Christmas, Bob and Ann! 🙂
