Red-breasted Goose

Branta ruficollis

Description:

Small attractive goose, a bit over 50cm in length, black-and-white-and-rusty coloured.

Habitat:

This species is a rare sight this far south in Europe, but I see this one regularly on Geneva lake, center of the city - unclear if it is a winter vagrant or an escapee...
