I first posted this to another list on Monday, but I thought some people
on this list might want to weigh in on it.
I started to photograph this goose
because of the head pattern, and it climbed onto the wall near the North
Pump House of the Central Park Reservoir to preen. It had yellow-orange
legs, which further caught my attention, and is not banded. It is
mostly Canada, and the closest I can think of from looking at guide
books would be a mix with, possibly, an escaped Bar Headed. I don't
think it's a leucistic bird, because the color is too even. The legs and
body don't look like a hybrid with greylag-type (domestic) geese,
either, and the color legs is wrong for Snow Goose.

Any other ideas?
