Snow and Ross's Geese


The Snow Goose is a white-bodied goose with black wingtips. The bill has a dark line along it, often called a "grinning patch". You may also see dark morph Snow Geese, or "Blue Geese,"
A tiny white goose with black wingtips, the Ross's Goose is like a miniature version of the more abundant Snow Goose.
