The Canada Goose – Branta canadensis – is also known as the Canadian Goose as it is native to he arctic and temperate regions of North America. It has been introduced to many countries including the UK, France and other countries in Europe, New Zealand, Japan, Chile, etc. A herbivore by nature it has also become very well adapted to living near humans so will take foods offered by them, they can, however, become very territorial and aggressive. This one was seen having a good wash and splash around at Martin Mere Wetlands.

The Greylag Goose - Anser anser - is the largest and bulkiest of the wild Geese native to Britain and Europe at 76-89cm long, a wingspan of 147-180cm and weighing 2.9-3.7 kg. They will eat roots, cereal leaves, grass and spilled grain and can often be found in pastures grazing the nutritious grass alongside sheep or cows, surprisingly they can also be found in ploughed fields searching for potatoes which they love. I caught this one just as it was landing on one of the waters at Martin Mere Wetlands.
