'Blue' geese        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Snow geese occur in two color morphs, the common white form an the highly variable 'blue' goose shown here.   The photos were taken in November 2012 at the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico.   Quite a few of the images were made at the 'Crane Pools' along Highway 1, near the north boundary of the Refuge.
