White-fronted goose

Okay, you’re new, peacefully grazing in Sunset Beach Park with a few Canada geese! Definitely not a snow goose either, Merlin says you’re a white-fronted goose!

Juvenile, too: those white spots near the bill will soon grow into a big white patch covering half the face, that gives the species its name.
