ID on this Goose
Only seen this on 2 early morning visits to Brookfoot and it flies away with the Canadas just after first light.
this looks like the small Pink Foot type that used to be with Canada's at Mytholmoroyd a couple of years back, I think Dave's right it does not quite look right for a pure Pinkfoot
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,

It has obviously got some Pink-foot genes in it, but I would think it is presumably feral as it is hanging around with the Canadas in that location
Looks like a pink foot to me.
Hope to catch it in better light soon as the leaves are falling so more light getting thro onto the lake early morning.
