Field Notes

Description:

I think I have the correct ID for this loud, gregarious fellow and his mate. Domestic swan goose, Anser cygnoides ... but all suggestions appreciated. She was very quiet, actually, he was honking and chasing other geese.

Habitat:

Municipal park

Notes:

Another common name, Chinese goose?

Reference Links:
