Species Account:
Very small, a bit larger than mallards, with very stubby triangular bills stuck onto the center of the face, with considerable "jowls" showing below the lower edge of the bills, i.e. the heads were more rounded than in Canada Geese (in which the lower edge of the bill is no higher than the lower edge of the head, posterior to the bill). Very dark purplish breasts with no obvious white collar. --<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/TKZMLneze8j7hWwhkLffo9MTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qypvsHnJf5o/Unmb4BrgWzI/AAAAAAAAIp8/HpAroTd9rMc/s640/IMG_0409%255B1%255D.JPG" /></a>From <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/Carl.Lundblad/EBirdImbed?authuser=0&feat=embedwebsite">eBird imbed</a>--<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/8ZVKuVXxHZhRHZ7lXHHcg9MTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-2bm0b-q_oiE/UnmcFsdhOVI/AAAAAAAAIqQ/JxGsS-LmMvs/s640/IMG_0423%255B1%255D.JPG" /></a>From <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/Carl.Lundblad/EBirdImbed?authuser=0&feat=embedwebsite">eBird imbed</a>
