They are nice photos in spite of my first comment. I've never seen juvie snows with the short beaks. I've heard this year was a good hatch for them.

They are of normal look as to the ones we usually harvest. They all come from Wrangle Island. I believe I heard that there was a 90% survival rate this year, so lots of juvies.
