I'm confident from the shapes etc. of these non-aerodynamic geese  
that they are indeed domestics!

Regarding the photo of the spruce grouse chick, note how young it  
looks and the feathered-out wing, and now I'm wondering again about  
the earliest age is for flight in these grouse chicks?  Randy's info'  
was about 8 days? and my naive guess earlier was 4 days -- perhaps  
it's more like 6 days or so?

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
