Emperor Geese at Adak Island

The *Emperor Goose* ("Chen canagica") is a species of goose
. It breeds around theBering Sea
, mostly in Alaska
, USA
, but also in Kamchatka
, Russia
. It is migratory
, wintering mainly in the Aleutian Islands
.
The American Ornithologists' Union
 places this species and the North American
"white" geese in the genus "Chen
", rather than the more traditional "gray" goose genus "Anser".
Head stained orange
This goose has a stout gray body, subtly barred with fine barring, and a white head and hindneck, often stained orange fromiron-rich
 waters. Unlike the blue-morphSnow Goose
, the white does not extend onto the front of the neck. The sexes are similar, but immatures have the head the same color as the body.
This species is much less gregarious than most geese, usually occurring in family groups. It breeds on coastal tundra, laying 3–7 eggs in a ground nest.
Breeding birds
 molt near the breeding colonies, but non-breeders move to St. Lawrence Island
 to molt prior to the main migration to the rocky coastlines of the wintering grounds.
The food of this goose is typically composed of shoreline grasses and other coastal plants.

The *Bean Goose* is a goose
 that breeds in northern Europe
 and Asia
. It has two distinct varieties, one inhabiting taiga
habitats and one inhabiting tundra
. These are recognised as separate species by theAmerican Ornithologists' Union
, but are considered a single species by other authorities, such as the British Ornithologists' Union
. It is migratory
 and winters further south in Europe and Asia
this goose is close related to the pink footed goose.
This breed looks alot like my brownchinesexgreylag cross and they can fly perfect

There are a number of ducks I´m trying to learn here, not geese, as I´m not sure if Brazil actually has any native geese as such. They do have some pretty little ducks, though.
