Not a White-fronted Goose

[Joseph E. Faggan]

I want to withdraw my identification as a Greater White-fronted Goose of a bird I saw Sunday on Belle Isle.  It has the field marks, but it's too big.  Steve Santner, who also saw the bird, thinks it's a domesticated Graylag.  I should have noticed the heading of Sibley's description of the White-fronted, which says "Beware confusion with the superficially similar domestic Graylag Goose."
