		The Pink-footed Goose (Anser brachyrhynchus) is a goose which breeds in eastern Greenland, Iceland and Svalbard.
		The upper wing-coverts are of a somewhat similar pale bluish-grey as in the Greylag Goose, and the flight feathers flish-grey.
		The species is most closely related to the Bean Goose Anser fabalis (having even been treated as a subspecies of it at times in the past), sharing a similar fl-and-coloured pattern bill, but differing in having pink on the bill and legs where the Bean Goose is orange, and in the paler, greyer plumage tones.

	Spring migration of pink-footed geese under threat
		There are two discrete populations of pink-footed goose: the Greenland/Iceland population, which breeds in Iceland and Greenland and overwinters in Britain; and the Svalbard population.
		On their migratory route north, the geese stop to feed on sheep pastures and emerging crops at Vesterålen in northern Norway so that they arrive in Svalbard in good enough condition to breed successfully.
		Populations of the goose have almost doubled over the past twenty years, from between 23,000 and 30,000 in the 1980s to 45,000 today.

		Some 20,000-30,000 are estimated to be shot each year in Iceland and Britain (although accurate figures for the latter do not exist).
		This population has been monitored annually since 1960 by the Icelandic-breeding Goose Census (IGC).
		A network of largely volunteer observers undertakes two co-ordinated counts, the first in October and the second in November, aiming to cover all key roost sites (daytime counts of feeding birds are made in a few areas).

		The small size and unusual colouring of this goose at Drumpellier Country Park marked it out as different from the many Greylag geese that frequent the loch there.
		The solitary Pink-footed goose had obviously attracted the attention of this Greylag Goose, which was observed keeping close to the stranger - who looked a bit uncomfortable at the popularity.
		If the Pink-footed Goose was not showing off its feet, that could not be said about this handsome Redshank - though this one was standing on just one leg, as they often do.

		Wild geese of several other species may sometimes get mixed up with the migrating flocks en-route to Norfolk and be seen within the area.
		During the present winter period, the flock has been joined by a Ross's Goose (origin unknown) but its size and white colouration has made it relatively easy to locate and act as an indicator in the movement of the Pink-footed Goose flocks.
		This goose along with flocks of Pink-feet have been seen as far away as Waxham, near Great Yarmouth only to be found locally again next morning.

		Only one count in excess of today's figure has been recorded on the Humber since the winter of 1961-62 and that was a one off count of 4931 in October 1969.
		Along with today's flock was a single Barnacle Goose but last winter produced records of two different first-winter Greenland White-fronts and in several recent winters small parties of European White-fronts and Bean Geese have joined the flock around Christmas time into the new year.
		We may well be due for a real Snow Goose or a small Canada with the flock and if it continues to increase the chances are greater.

	Pink-footed Goose (Anser brachyrhynchus)
		It wouldn't be sensible to identify a Pink-footed Goose by its pink feet since Greylags also have pink legs and juvenile Pink-feet have dull orange legs.
		Instead you should notice that it has a relatively short neck, small head and stubby bill with pink and fl markings.
		For the purposes of our bird news services, Pink-footed Goose is classed as Common: common species, including species that are certain or probable escapees from captivity when occurring in the British Isles.
