Ross's goose has black wingtips, a short neck and is the smallest of North American geese. Numbers have increased as a result of conservation measures. Bernard Ross was the first to discover the arctic nesting grounds of these geese in 1940. They migrate from their Canadian nesting grounds by mid-October before food becomes limited and freezing temperatures set in. #rosssgoose #rossgoose #rossesgoose #goose #lake #reflection #bird #outdoor #water #ripples #swimming #laarboretum #arboretum #losangelesarboretum #geese #white #birdwatching #afewinterestingfacts #nature #outdoors #wildlife (at Los Angeles County Arboretum & Botanic Garden) https://www.instagram.com/p/CExWb_FB6YT/?igshid=sxh4ykdubjad
