What was the goose doing flying around at cruising altitude?!

This allegedly happened in the 70s on a flight from Tenerife so I don't know what sort of plane he was on and what altitude it was flying at but apparently geese have been spotted by pilots all the way up to 25k+ feet.

This is actually somewhat mind blowing; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_birds_by_flight_heights

Whooper swan Cygnus cygnus Anatidae 8,200 metres (27,000 feet) This height was attained by a flock of whooper swans flying over Northern Ireland, and recorded by radar.

That's rad. I spotted a bearded vulture a few weeks ago in Switzerland. We were at 3000m, didn't realise they can go up to 7300m!
