Leucistic Canada Goose - Princess Point

[Michael Beuth]

We saw this driving into the parking lot at Princess Point late Sunday afternoon. My son snapped this photo. Would this be considered to be a leucistic Canada goose? It was walking with a regular Canada goose as it appeared to have the same body size as a regular one.

It's a domestic goose, imo.

Hi all,

This bird's a long-time resident of Princess Point, has even migrated away with the Canada Geese and returned year after year, and appears to have a Canada Goose as a partner. But, it is actually an escapee domestic Graylag Goose.

Good birding,

Rob
