- Comments: "Continuing birds. Moving back and forth from Parade Grounds to Prospect Park. Diminutive size apparent when on land. Paler overall with frosty appearance in certain light. Small-headed with small, stubby bills. Short-necked appearance gives them a longer feel than the nearby Canadas. In the attached photo the two right-most birds."
