Egyptian goose (Alopochen Aegyptiaca)
Warmer Damm Park, Wiesbaden, Germany.

The Egyptian Goose, a striking and noisy species introduced to England in the 17th century, has recently expanded beyond its former stronghold in Norfolk. From an estimated population of around 900 in 1991—mostly in East Anglia—it has since spread to London, the Home Counties, and is likely to move into the East Midlands. It breeds early in the year, nesting in large, hollow trees, with males remaining nearby during incubation.
