I just posted a message about my confusion regarding four geese at the
Hamma Hamma estuary which look just like first winter Greater White-
fronted Geese. However, take a look at the Graylag Goose in your
National Geographic Bird Guide and tell me how to tell the two
apart. In Medina, wouldn't the Graylag (escaped or released) domestic
be a real possibility?
