I saw what I believe to be a Ross's Goose (or possibly a Ross x Snow Goose
hybrid) foraging with Canada geese yesterday (4/5) at Lake Reba in
Richmond.  It was bright white with black primaries, about half the size of
a Canada goose, and had a very short bill- I didn't notice the "black grin"
of a Snow Goose.    Has anyone else seen this bird?
