Greylag Goose - Graugans

The GreyLag Goose (Graugans) is a fun bird to observe due to its boisterously verbal and animated social behavior. The most distinct feature of these birds in my opinion is their rivuletted neck feathers. These photos were taken in the heart of Munich in the English Garden.
