Puddles USFWS Blue Goose Sighting.

Anyone who has seen a National Wildlife Refuge sign has seen the "Blue Goose" logo.


But did you know that the Blue Goose is actually the mascot of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service?

And not just any Blue Goose, but the mascot has a name. Puddles.

This weekend at the Cradle of Birding Wildlife and Conservation Festival at the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge I had a brief and distant Puddles sighting. Definitely a Better View Desired (BVD) type of sighting.


Fortunately I later got a much better view.

looks like puddles is in need of some nourishment, but now I have more trivia knowledge thanks to you!

'Puddles' looks more like some sort of monster penguin (or perhaps a brightly colored moa).
