I know it's a goose and am pretty familiar with game birds
I just can't ID this one.

Pretty sure it's not a barnacle goose
And not a lesser canada
I'm also leaning to a cross breed cuz it has the orange legs like a speckle belly but the coloration doesn't match up
DID SOME1 SAY GUMBO!!!! Mmmmm

It could be a blue morph of a Ross's goose.

I think it may just be a cross. If it had a red crown I would say muscovite (sp?). Which is a domesticated Eastern European breed. Some of the young'uns go off the farm now and again. I have seen them killed with specs.

Why would anyone waste good okra on skycarp gumbo? Very Happy

Canada x White fronted Goose hybrid. Not all that uncommon but they are highly variable.
