  I was birding at cherry creek in the late afternoon and saw what was probably 
the same bird. I got a poor photo with the head up.

 It appears to have a snow like bill but is the size of a Ross'.

  Any expert opinions would be appreciated.

call it either Ross or snow.  It was an adult bird.

[cobirds] white goose, Cherry Creek SP

[Karl Stecher Jr.]

Among the 1500 or more white cheeked geese on the ice and shallow water, on 
the west side of Cherry Creek reservoir, near the picnic tables, early on 
the 12/9 afternoon was one white goose.  It faced the other way or was 
behind other geese. By size it looked like a Ross', but I did not get a 
good enough look to call it either Ross or snow.  It was an adult bird.
