Do these geese over-winter on the coast? I've never seen them here in Powell River, but this morning I caught an immature bird in among a flock of about 25 Canada's.

I have seen them here in Victoria past winters at Esquimalt Lagoon. I haven't seem them yet this year but I'm pretty sure they hang around.
