Migrating Geese
A blue-morph Snow Goose (Anser caerulescens) and three white morphs accompanied by two Ross's Geese (Anser rossii). A cool fact from Cornell "Populations of arctic-nesting geese, especially Ross’s Geese and Snow Geese, have changed the plant communities in the places where they nest. Their large, growing colonies strip vast areas of vegetation, in some areas nearly down to bare ground. Some of these denuded areas of tundra are visible from space." Press L to view larger, a short cut I just learned.
