RE: Odd goose - hybrid?


Thanks chaps. Definitely a hybrid then and may even be the same bird @David Hughes saw at Elton, it's not far from Lakeside as the goose flies.

Can anyone help me identify a goose I saw at Lakeside Lodge (near Goshen sports fields) today?

It was on the edge of a flock of Canada geese but it was slightly larger, had a slightly longer neck, lacked the black markings and had distinctive yellow feet and a pinkish bill. I'm no expert but I looked in my field guides and none have any yellow footed geese like this. I'm wondering if it's a hybrid of Canada goose with something else.

Sorry, I don't know why the photos get rotated when I upload them.
