Observation details
Rare. Perhaps the hybrid seen last year first seen by Nate Marchessault (11/16/24). See https://ebird.org/checklist/S202789604 Larger than a Canada Goose. Long black neck and white rear flanks. Dark grey back and belly with no mottling. No white on the chest as a Canada Goose. Leucism seen on this goose's head. Bill has some orange to it. Photos were taken from the Senior Center looking across to the other side of the pond, cropped. I also observed and photographed this hybrid last November, if it's the same bird. https://ebird.org/checklist/S203113840
