Wow Cindy and Liam ,I always took these local geese for granted and never cared to photograph them. i am really excited to have actually found natural hybrids! My heartfelt thanks to both of you! You both are truly awesome!

First bird is a typical Chinese x Toulouse Goose hybrid (domesticated Swan x Greylag Goose), and the white one looks to be an Chinese x Embden hybrid (also domesticated Swan x Greylag Goose).

Here's a link with some goose hybrid information and photo's http://www.birds.cornell.edu/crows/domge...

I don't know what that one is either. Another hybrid? Either way, they're pretty and you have great pics!

Thanks so much Alice!

Nice!

Cindy,quite possible. In picture number 2 there is a goose with a black beak. Is that a snow goose?

Well now I'm confused. It has the coloring and markings of a Swan Goose although the beak is orange which points me to the Graylag Goose. This one has a black bean and lower mandible so I'm wondering if it's a hybrid.
