Hi Miss Marnie,
Looks to me like your goose may be a mutt goose, or a goose with mixed ancestry.
I have seen a tame white goose hanging with the Canada Geese at the Duck
River Unit before, and this one looks like it may be related to that one.
The Plovers are Black Bellied Plover, something I've never seen at the DU
yet, though I had 24 in West Tennessee on Robinson Bayou Road yesterday.
Those are some nice birds, i'll have to get out there again, I hadn't
known that it was open again.
