Titel: 2 hybrider (?) i en flok på omkring 100 Grågæs. Anser SP. x Branta canadensis

Beskrivelse: Begge fuglene var kun en smule større end grågæssene og mere brunt-tonede end Canadagæs i ren form er. Næb lidt afvigende, en fugl med mere smudsig kindplet end den anden, en med gule ben, en med grå-blå. Mon det kan være søskende - med forskelligt hybrid-udtryk ?
