Pink-footed Geese

Bowerman Basin, Grays Harbor, Washington

These breed in Greenland. They are sighted from time to time in eastern North America and considered to be wild vagrants. These two, however are currently visiting in western Washington state. There is some discussion ongoing as to whether they are "wild" or escapees from some collection. At this point a likely collection has not been located but many are looking. Whatever the outcome, these two are definately in the wild now and a rare opportunity for myself and others in this area.
