Nature Walks – A New Goose In Town

There’s a new goose in town. I can tell you what it’s not. It’s not our usual Canadian, nor is it a snow goose, a greater white-front goose, a Ross’s goose or a cackling. But I can’t tell you what it is either. It is not in my Colorado bird book, nor can I find it on-line. The best I am coming up with is that it is a hybrid, but even then, it is still a different goose from what I am seeing. I don’t know what it is, but it sure is pretty. I’m glad I got to see it. Today is the first time I’ve ever seen this new goose in our neck of the woods.

I am definitely never bored when walking around my lakes. I just never know who I am going to see or meet. Everyday is different. Today was a perfect example of this. 🙂

      1. I hadn’t either…I looked it up in my bird book. The Barnacle goose is more eastern, nesting in Greenland (I think?), and the Emperor goose is from Alaska, but can make its way into California…from what I’ve read. Both will flock with other geese.
