Cindy,this is a link for the sub species,

Cindy ,yours could very well be a ssp. because of the symmetrical nature of the markings.
Let me see if I can find a link on ssp.
I remembered your spotting when I saw this bird!!I remember reading somewhere that these spots do show up now and then.
Liam might be able to better answer your question though.
I spotted one with a white dot above each eye. They're symmetrical so I thought it was a ssp of some kind. I wonder if Liam's guess of leucism is true for mine as well. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/8499641
Thanks Liam. This Goose had an excellent temperament.He was intelligent enough to know that i meant no harm and seemed to enjoy my presence and the attention it was getting. Beautiful bird!!
