I have already posted about this escaped domestic goose I saw at Shakerley Mere at the weekend.
An Embden Goose is my best guess for ID.... bred for meat and eggs.
I have to re-share it's wonderful blue eyes.
...when have you ever seen such baby blue eyes in a wild bird.

He sure is better off with the Canada Geese than on someone's table, especially with those eyes. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

I've said before, he is wonderful.
he is a handsome fellow with his almost ridged neck feathers, too.
Wow, really handsome one! And these eyes:)
Andrew, what a pretty goose. I love the blue eyes. Wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing!
Wow...beautiful!!
Such elegance and grace in these photos. Those closeup details are just amazing and look at those eyes. Very nice.
Beautiful Andrew!
It is a beauty. You will have to check next year to see if there are any cross-breeds with this one. :)
The blue eye and orange coloring make this a striking looking fellow!
Lovely images Andrew!
Love the orange eyeliner and beautiful blue eyes! I have never saw a bird of any kind with blue eyes, thank you for sharing.
Beautiful profile shots! You really captured the colors.

Very beautiful photos, great shots, very nice you did it.
Greetings.
These are great, love those close up images of the eyes and feathers~
i like the closeup shots, the details of the feathers and those beautiful blue eyes.
OOOo! Juicy close ups of gorgeous eyes! I have blue eyes, too. So, I especially appreciate this fellow's. I have had a "domestic" that looks like this wintering in our cove on the Atlantic in the company of a flock of about 44 Canada geese. It's unusual to see a domestic flying around with wild geese, so I've done a little research about it. I have wanted to know what variety of domestic 'mine' is. In the process of searching for that info., I've learned a little about domestics. I think your's is an "embden" which are known for those stunning, baby blues. thanks for a great post!
Excellent photography! The bird is so beautiful - gorgeous eyes :)
So very white! Fantastic close-up shots, Andrew.
Cracking goose Andrew.
Paul Newman blue, no wonder he's so popular!
He has joined another tribe! And good for him.
What a beauty!
He looked like he was having a great time. sandie
What gorgeous close up shots, Andrew! I love those eyes.
