I'm not sure how much longer this Snow Goose will hang around Kit Carson Park. Mid-April should really be about it. However, it is alone, with mostly non-migratory ducks now on the pond. So, when it migrates is totally up to it. At least, many people got to see and photograph this rather rare wintering bird. I caught it in some nice early morning light. In the bottom photo I caught it a bit back-lit.

I saw one that looks just like him at a beach in Carlsbad a few days ago. I have a pic but can’t seem to post it. This bird let me get closer than the shore birds do for a pic. He was unusually relaxed for his pics.
