Cackling Goose (Branta hutchinsii), Sacaton Waste Water Treament Plant (resticted access, GRIC permit required), Pinal County

This Cackling Goose was found and photographed by David Pearson on 30 October 2019

Cackling Goose is a rare winter visitor to Arizona.

Cackling Geese are separated from Canada Geese by smaller size, shorter neck, and proportionately shorter bill with a steeper forehead.
