Took a drive upriver looking for tufted ducks today. No luck, but met another birder who told us to look for a large flock of trumpeter swans in a field on our way home. He was sure he'd seen one bean goose and one pink-footed goose amongst the swans. Well, we found the field. Snowy, of course. And the only spot we could get to meant photographing straight into the sun. But a couple of pics came out possibly identifiable. I've compared pics on-line and in guides and can't really tell if these are bean geese, pink-footed geese, or one of each. Can anyone on the ID forum help? Four images to work from, but all from some distance and into the sun. One of each goose and two of the two together.
