This week Jon spotted an odd goose in a small flock of Canadas in AA County.  To me it looked like a blue morph snow goose head on a Canada body.  The legs are bright orange - the first thing we noticed- and we thought at first these feet might suggest some Greater White Fronted Goose lineage.  We didn't have a good camera with us, but we got a rather poor photo anyway, which shows some of the features.  

I don't have a link to the photo to post, but I will be delighted to send a jpeg to anyone willing to try to help me ID this bird.  All opinions are appreciated!

Thanks,

Joanne
