Pink-footed Goose
The Pink-footed Goose (Anser brachyrhynchus) is a goose breeding in Greenland, Iceland and Svalbard. It winters in nortwest Europe, especially Great Britain.
It is closely related to the Bean Goose (Anser fabalis). The Pink-footed Goose has the bill short, bright pink in the middle, and the feet also pink, which is diagnostic.
The upper wing-coverts are nearly of the same bluish-grey as in the Greylag Goose.
