[cobirds] Possible intermediate, dark-morph SNOW GEESE on Overland Golf Course, DENVER COUNTY

All, while riding my bike on the Platte River this evening around 4:30 p.m., on the west side of the Overland golf course just north of Evans, I saw four geese with white necks and heads and bodies that sort of looked like Canada or Cackling goose.  They were mixed in with a flock of about 500 Canada/Cackling geese, and it was starting to get dark, so I didn't get great looks at them.  The only thing I can find in Sibley that looks remotely similar is an intermediate, dark-morph snow goose (or maybe Ross's?).  Anyway, I thought they were post-worthy!
