January 23rd, 2007. Newport Country Club, Aquidneck Island, RI. Pink-footed Goose Anser brachyrynchus. (2) Decent scope views over a forty minute period after the birds had flown in from resting (unseen) elsewhere on the golf course. We only had very brief flight views prior to this. Images taken using Canon Powershot A540 through Swarovski HD telescope. |
  Nice view of the black-tipped pink bill.   |
