Snow Goose (Anser caerulescens) (1)
- Reported Jun 18, 2026 16:01 by Luke Jensen
- Waller Park, Santa Barbara, California
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&<q...>,-120.4392958&<ll...>,-120.4392958 - Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S359345427 - Comments: "Usual guy hanging out with domestic ducks and goose, “ his kind”. Even though it is flagged as rare it is a lazy “domesicized” snow goose that has been at this pond every day for about a year or so. It has been reported almost single time a person has gone there that knows to look for it."
