Although the body shows some dark feather edging that resemble a Canada Goose, the thick neck with deep ridges in the feathers indicate this bird has domestic goose genes.

Very large and whitish, but with some "wild-type" markings. Looked mostly domestic but obviously flying around with Canadas.

It's either that or a domestic type.
