Egyptian Goose
The Egyptian Goose is native to Africa, especially the Nile Valley in Egypt and south of the Sahara desert.
In Western Europe, this bird was introduced in the 18th century with well established feral populations as result.
This striking and sometimes aggressive bird was considered sacred by the ancient Egyptians and appeared in much of their artworks.
Dutch name : Nijlgans

Awesome shot! I'm honestly impressed by the high quality of this pic!Thank you so much for helping me 'cause I don't knew the right name of this beautiful goose.
But, to tell you the truth... first I thought ist was a duck! ;-)
