A Leucistic Canada Goose

Brampton, Ontario. He was with a flock of normal looking Canada Goose. Leucism is related to loss of feather pigmentation which also weakens flight feathers. To quote BTO "There is also evidence that leucistic birds might, on occasion, not be recognised or accepted by a potential mate". How unfortunate.
