Red Breasted Goose



I spotted this Red Breasted Goose on the River Yare, near Norwich, last Sunday. It was with a group of Greylags. I believe it's not very common in England but is it rare enough to have notified anyone - and if so, who?

Hello there. Red-breasted Goose is very rare here as a wild bird- not much more than one a year- but it is commonly kept in captivity. So your bird will have hopped it from somebody's collection.
