Hello,

Here is a group of wild geese seen in the Falkland islands.
I'm thinking of Feral domestic geese, anser anser, but I'm surprised that they are white, not grey.
Does someone have an idea ?
Cheers

Yes, domestic goose derived from greylag. White is a common variant.

There's a female Upland Goose doing a Red Grouse impression behind them!
