Pink-footed Goose - January 17, 2004

Pink-footed Goose at Chambers Lake, Chester County, PA

This mega-rarity proved quite uncooperative during the hour or so we watched it.  Often, the only view we had was the one depicted in the second picture, which was a rare clear shot.  Eventually the bird perked up and allowed the first picture below, and also (eventually) stretched out and allowed us to see its bright pink legs (not pictured, unfortunately).
