Default Might be a mounter out there!!

Yesterday I was out at Lowe's on 180th and center and seen a couple flocks of resident geese. They were a couple blocks away but one goose was really light colored. Same size as all the others so I'm ruling out extremely lost snow. Not trying to sound racist but it stood out like a white guy at the million man march. Not sure what I seen because of the distance but you guys hunting the early season might want to do some scouting. They were headed in the direction of Boystown.

i have seen the bird you are talking about livnlrn. i live right by boystown on 150th and dodge and geese frequently buzz the house. actually i posted something about that bird in february this year. i was wondering the same thing as you, only i had better reason to think it was a snow because of the time of year. i wouldnt be surprised if it still is just a snow, but i would really like to know. im probably going to go to boystown tomorrow early mornin just to see what all they have there right now. maybe if the things hangin around ill let you know.

It's hard tellin where those birds are sitting during the day. They could be on Whitehawk, the two ponds across from wal-mart and lowes on center, lakeside, zorinsky, who knows... I did see some geese feeding in the alfalfa fields around 192nd and center last night. Right behind that new gas station and a field just south of Lanoha's.

I have seen the great white mythical fowl again. I saw this goose three times yesterday. Once flying, once resting, and again feeding. It's either a true albino or a domestic because it is all white. It was about a 100 yds out in an alfalfa field when I got my best look. Got the binocs and camera in the truck now just in case I see it again.

If it feeds in the same field again Thurs. I'll have a pic.

Not to drum up an old post, but I believe this goose was on our water the other day. All weekend long it was at my father-in-law's leased ground on the water and in the field. Had goose been open (didn't shoot it in fear that it was an albino Canadian), it would've been dead by now. This one was with a bunch of other Canadians and was all white with what seemed to be a very light brown neck and was the loudest one of them all. Any other thoughts on this goose in case we see it again?

Will do - that was already on the agenda. I'll post a photo if we see it again. A few other guys hunt that property so hoping we can get it before they do.

Does it look like this?? Killed this bird 2 years ago.....it's not a true albino. It's a leucistic goose meaning it is lacking certain pigments. When I shot him, he was the lead goose with a V of honkers behind him. Last pic is him mounted.
