My guess is that Glirdan the Goose was trying not to name a Duck, but stumbled across one by mistake. If a Goose masquerading as an Owl names a Duck as an innocent, that Duck is hardly likely to complain. The only way he could be caught out is if the real Owl has dreamed of the Duck he names as innocent. But, assuming (which I do) that she is the real Owl, Mith had already revealed all that she knew.

I really cannot see that it would have been in a Duck's interests to masquerade as an Owl at that point. It would have invited almost certain death within days. No, if Glirdan's claim was true, then Mith is most likely the Goose.

But, to my mind, all the evidence points towards Mith being the Owl. The possibility that she's not cannot, I suppose be discounted. In which case, we would have no known innocents at all. But, for now, I prefer to go with the more likely scenario.
