Humungoose

Also at Hauxley on Saturday whilst chatting to LJM and searching a huge flock of Pink footed Geese for a Bean Goose this chap appeared who I first saw on the 16th. Bigger than a Greylag with a big gnarly black beak it has features of Swan Goose / Chinese Goose but doesn't fit in with any of the images I can find so maybe an interbreed.
Despite its size the Greylags did not look favourably on it and was chased off on the occasions it ventured near them.
Also present a pair of Barnies, a Whitefront and a few Canada Geese for almost a full house.
