Greylag goose?

Hello everyone. Just going through some photos taken end of Sept. This goose was the only one of his kind in a pond, all the mallerds were following him around like he was their guardian

. I thought it was a greylag, but now having second thoughts, is it?
Thanks for your time, Pam

It's a Greylag x Chinese Goose hybrid.

Cheers,

Adam

Know what you mean this poor thing doesn't know what it wants to be. Reminds me of those books when I was little when you turn a page and it gave a character different feet, middle or head.
