Folks,
I birded at Union Reservoir near Longmont this morning. There were thousands of geese (along with 22 bald eagles looking for an easy meal). Mostly they were cackling geese but a few snow geese (including a dark morph), a couple of Ross' geese (including a dark morph bird but I'm not sure it is a pure Ross' goose?) and one greater white-fronted goose were also there.
There were also a few puzzling (to me) hybrids. I wonder if anyone has thoughts as to what these might be? Photos include in the checklist.
