Snow Goose, Graylag, hybrid, or ?


Recommended Posts

26 Jan 2023 Baldwin co. AL;  with large flock of Canada Geese. Freshwater pond (impound) in farmland

Bill looks too large & not the proper shape for Snow Goose, and I don't see the grin patch.

I would say it's likely some type of domesticated goose on size alone.

Should I even count it?  It flew in with a flock of wintering Canada Geese.

goose sp. I wouldn't eliminate a leucistic/albinistic goose from these pics.

This bird has domestic genes. But since we can’t really see more/better details, goose sp. would do.
