Distribution

Bean Goose   Anser fabalis

In 2020, this species was divided into two new species, the Taiga Bean Goose (Anser fabalis), and the Tundra Bean Goose (Anser serrirostris). 

Occurs annually in smaller numbers. Most observations are of single individuals together with Pink-footed Goose during Spring migration in late May. There are also observations of pairs in potential breeding areas during the breeding season.

The species probably attempts to breed. Hybridisation with Pink-footed Goose may occur.
