On July 28, I observed 9 VANCOUVER CANADA GEESE (aka fulva) at M Street Marsh in Auburn. These birds are brown on the back as opposed to more grayish in the more common WESTERN CANADA GEESE (aka moffitt). These Vancouver Canada Geese are more buffy below, not whitish like the Western Canada Geese. Both birds are about the same size. Videos of both subspecies may be viewed at: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjCowp4
These are likely the same geese observed by Lee Gingras a week earlier on July 21 and reported on ebird. This sighting was also at M Street Marsh.
These birds have been in the area for at least a week. Who knows where they might show up next and how long they might remain.
