I'm not sure how rare this is but I've been watching and waiting for one to 
appear for the last six years in Denver's City Park. The juvenile has the 
white eye marks, body shape and coloration of a Canada Goose but has stocky 
yellow legs (already thicker than adult Canada Goose), bi-colored bill (top 
black, bottom yellow), and the bill shape of a Graylag Goose. This is a 
weird looking bird it'll be interesting to see what it grows up to look 
like. Has anyone else encountered a hybrid of these two species before?
