I agree looks like a hybrid, white-fronted x Canada... Very interesting. Where'd you shoot it?

More pictures would be better. My first guess it a Greylag canada cross.

Here's another pic. Well it spoke Canadian (since I was using a Canadian Goose call) so it assured me it wasn't an endangered
. It's huge too.

The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.

h2ofowlr- Thanks, where do they usually hang out? Just migrate with the honkers or stay local? You eat the one you shot? I'm gonna mount it

Domestic cross.....several years ago we had a bunch on our local river. My buddie shot one that looked like a blue goose. Solid white head with orange bill, canada body, lil more white up the breast and orange feet. Big one too
