Hi, Tweeters,

Several weeks ago, I saw a flock of Canada geese on Capitol Lake (in Olympia)
with a white goose in with them. She was totally white and very much a
domesticated goose. This was NOT an albino honker, NOT an all white snowy,
not a wild bird at all, she was your average barnyard goose.
On Wednesday, my husband saw this same flock ? at least, he saw a flock of
Canadas flying into Nisqually with the same white goose in formation with
them.

I believe this question has been addressed before but........has anyone any
idea how a domesticated goose came to be hanging with a bunch of honkers? Did
she one day hear the call of the wild and answer it? You have to give her
credit...domesticated geese aren't bred for their flying abilities, so she
must be working hard to keep up with the honkers. I'm certain they're
non-migratory, even so, she's one heck of a goose.
