Cackling Goose in frame for comparison of size
Observation details
This bird was observed at length on Ferill Lake, among a large flock of Cackling and Canada Geese, as well as many species of ducks. The bird was roughly the size of the Cackling Geese; much smaller than the two Graylag Geese who live in City Park. There is a noticeable white flank line on the side of the bird. Tail feathers are very dark. Was not able to observe the belly or legs. Size and gizz led to identification of Greater White-fronted rather than Graylag
