Goose, Greylag
Greylag Goose. In main pond. 25.5.13. Area 2+3.
Escaped domestic. In 2012 two were breeding in the pond, but nest may have been predated.
Up to 11 were spotted here in early spring. The main flock seems to spend most time at Aberdare park,
and interbreed with the white Aylesbury ducks. In 2013, 14 young hatched, and all survived.
In 2015, 7 bred and survived. In 2016, 8 bred and survived.
