Garden County Nebraska (panhandle)
dates unknown (I had moved the pictures to a server, and it changed dates on me uploading and downloading)

Who knew? (well, ALL of you, obviously, but not me!)

All this time, I naively believed that the geese I was seeing were adults and their children (smaller ones). It was not until Joejr14 posted his pictures of geese today that I actually realized I had more than one type of goose in my pictures. So I went back and looked through a few, and found a few that had what I believe to be more than one species.
I will be looking through those flocks and flocks of geese on and by the river all winter a little more closely this winter. A neighbor told me today that they saw a flock of snow geese flying by, but I did not see those.

I think this one has two Greater White-fronted Goose
