Hi.

Which goose might this be ?

My guess = Graylag goose (Anser anser)

Very poor pictures, but the small movie is a little better..

Hi Malc...

I got this analyze from an experienced wqatcher... translated by me :)

"Yes, it is a Pink-footed goose.

Shortbilled with pink point of bill and also pink legs (pink/red is a 
better description).

On the pictures whitout flash one can see the brighter tail (than Bean 
goose) and and the brighter back 

(extra obvious silvercolour on some feaders). Back: silver in there. 
Neck and head deeper chokolate-brown 

than Bean.

The light tips on any feader at back and wings indicates young bird.

Huh ?
