Here he is, finally!

After seeing the poll answers on my last post; it has been decided that Fiddleford Mcgucket will be a Snow Goose :> (but he's a blue morph cuz i think it matched him more :> )

ok, so I'm trying to create Fiddleford's design but i'm conflicted between these three species (mainly the snow goose + night heron)....

cuz they all do kinda fit into him with each of their traits.

I came back to the pond with camera in hand, and the snow goose was thankfully still there :)

"Very localized, but abundant where they occur, Snow Geese typically are seen in large numbers or not at all. Included under this heading is the 'Blue Goose,' long considered a separate species, now known to be only a color morph of the smaller race of Snow (Lesser Snow Goose). The two color forms mate with each other, and may produce young of either or both colors. A larger race, Greater Snow Goose, nests in far eastern regions of Canada and winters on the Atlantic Coast."
