White geese?

Today out and about I saw a Canadian geese and what looked like to be a white Canadian geese (?) and then one that was mixed between them. I have never seen a white one before. I hope it was a canadian geese but i'm not sure. This is in Oregon.

Thanks. Joyce

Hey Abbygirl,

In the birding world we generally prefer the name Canada Goose . Was the bird all white or almost all white? Did it sound like the other geese if it was making any sounds at all? It's possible you could have seen a leucistic goose in your flock. It's also possible that you could have seen a hybrid Canada x Domestic Goose in the flock. If you can, try to get some pictures for us.
