Hey everyone, I meant to post this earlier, but better late 
than never.

On Feb 22 I spotted a likely domestic hybrid goose among the 
Canada Geese in the agricultural fields near my apartment in 
College Park MD (PG County).

Following the discussion last month of the Greylag X Canada 
Goose seen at Greenbelt Lake, I thought I'd post a picture 
to see if anyone could suggest the likely parentage of this 
bird:

I'm at a loss.  Let the fun begin!

Cheers,
