The bar-headed goose (Anser indicus) is a goose that breeds in Central Asia in colonies of thousands near mountain lakes and winters in South Asia, as far south as peninsular India. It lays three to eight eggs at a time in a ground nest. It is known for the extreme altitudes it reaches when migrating across the Himalayas.

What it is doing in the central belt of Scotland is unknown

Looking inside but not wanting to enter

he lives outside and forever will stay

his home is my yard, my garage and patio.

I have made him a warm shelter for cold bitter nights

but he refuses to come inside.

He is not very friendly although very curious

he comes for his food and takes that very serious.

Taken at rye meads nature reserve in hoddesdon.
