Observation details
Although not entirely unexpected, this bird was a personal first for me in the county: one adult Egyptian Goose standing alone at edge of wetland along Shallow Ford road in Temple. I was at least a couple hundred feet away when I parked and got out to take photos--the bird raised its neck and put both feet on the ground and started walking away from me. After processing my photos, the lateral neck feathers on the 2nd image seem to be marked with the numeral 241. I didn't notice this in vivo and I'm not totally positive about it, but it appears so.
