When leaving today I saw an oddly-colored Canada goose near the main pond between the theater and the Pleasant Valley Rd entrance. This (prob. leucistic) specimen had bright yellow legs and greatly reduced pigmentation on the body, almost white. The neck and head were normally-patterned but much lighter in color than the typical birds surrounding it. The black was basically a medium gray. I didn't get a good look at its bill. I'm unaware of Canada-domestic goose hybridization, but the reduction of pigment while maintaining the normal pattern makes a genetic anomaly like leucism much more likely in my mind. I'll try to remember get a picture and to post a message if it is still there tomorrow morning.
