A rare visitor far inland - a photo on Flickriver

A rare visitor far inland

            Pink-footed geese (or in German: short-billed geese) are arctic breeders and they winter along the costs of Europe - but they are not often found far away from the sea.  This one was a quite exciting exception in my hometown of Dresden, where it has been present for over a week now in a flock of about 80 greylag geese.  In the picture you can see how much smaller it is than the greylag goose in the background.
