Swan Goose first time I had seen this one

 

The Swan Goose is a rare Goose from Mongolia, Northern China and Southeast Russia.

 

Although most domestic Geese are descended from the Greylag Goose, two breeds are directly decended from the Swan Goose, namely the Chinese Goose and the African Goose.

 

Due to habitat loss, excessive hunting and egg collecting the population of the Swan Goose is in decline. It is currently classed as Vulnerable.
