Near goose anonymity among a gaggle of Canucks, everyone was molting, looking dazed and disheveled. I scoped them and one goose appeared smaller with orange legs. It had a distinctive patch of white on the face between crown and a pinkish bill, and immediately behind bill on the side of the face. Flanks and breast almost entirely white with some dark mottling above legs. Pure, molting adult or wf/snow hybrid? Have pics, will post soon.
