Neidzwiedz Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Good morning, i was going through some old pictures and I found this picture that both iBird and Merlin photo ID identified it as a Greater White-fronted goose with 70% certainty but it looks to new more like a Cackling goose or Canada goose hybrid. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiley Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Where was this taken? It's either a Canada x Greater White-fronted or Canada x Domestic Graylag Goose. Those can be rather hard to tell apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird Nuts Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I'd go with Canada x Domestic Graylag. The bulkiness points to domestic goose ancestry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcoot Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I agree with Canada x Domestic Graylag. The patterning on the neck seems reminiscent of a graylag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
