Re: [cobirds] Blue Morph Ross's Goose at Monte Vista NWR

Looks like the same type of bird that turned up at Sloan's Lake in 2014 (and spent some time at Wash Park ) that was deemed a hybrid (though some lucky birders got to count it as a Ross'!)

John Sterling found a 'true' blue-Ross' recently out in California:

Yesterday morning (3/13) while admiring the multitudes of Sandhill Cranes at Monte Vista NWR, I came across what I believe is a "blue" morph of a Ross's Goose in my scope. I'm curious what this group thinks. Are these unusual?
