Re: [Maine-birds] Cherryfield Snow Goose?

Joel,''It looks like you could have a pink footed goose...did you you see the legs and feet,,,were they bubble gum pink?  The pink on bill and blueish cast to its back suggest a very possible PFGO...any other pics?  Rob

Hi All,

i think this is a blue morph juvenile Snow Goose. Could someone please confirm or deny my attempt to ID?

The bird was with c. 30 Canada Geese in the farm field north of Willey District Rd. and just west of Wing Siding Rd. I saw it yesterday (11/05) PM in fading light, went back this morning and still there. Unfortunately the flock got tired of me and took off after a while.

I hope this photo does not use too much bandwidth, or whatever you call it. I'll open a Flickr account or an equivalent as soon as I figure out how to do that.
