Branta hutchinsii leucopareia
Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Aves Order: Anseriformes Family: Anserinae Genus: Branta Species: B. hutchinsii Subspecies: B. h. leucopareia
Aleutian geese typically arrive in California in mid October each year. The majority of the population goes right to their primary wintering areas in the Central Valley.
I found them at Cox Communications' Chesapeake campus crossing the parking lot.
