[QUOTE="hark, post: 743279, member: 13196"] Yesterday I posted one of these images in a Facebook photo group and was told the goose might have Angel Wing (it also goes by other names). It is a deformity caused by nutritional deficiencies which makes the wings grow outwards rather than to lie flat against their bodies. It can leave them unable to fly making them vulnerable to predators. I never heard of this, but a lot of it is due to people feeding ducks/geese white bread. Has anyone ever see this type of thing? I'm not 100% sure if this goose has it or if it was simply drying off - since I wasn't aware of Angel Wing, I didn't pay particular attention to this one goose. It was part of a flock floating in the water.
