Goose
Geese are waterfowl of the family Anatidae. This group comprises the genera Anser (the grey geese) and Branta (the black geese). Chen, a genus comprising ‘white geese’, is sometimes used to refer to a group of species that are more commonly placed within Anser. Some other birds, mostly related to the shelducks, have “goose” as part of their names. More distantly related members of the family Anatidae are swans, most of which are larger than true geese, and ducks, which are smaller,More info:wiki

Have you ever come across a field full of geese stuffing themselves with the stubble of last year’s harvest and assumed that they were Canada Geese? They are a common species, after all, with a distinctive look: large, muddy birds with long, black necks and prominent white chinstraps and cheeks.
But before you turn your back on the flock, take a closer scan. There might be a rarer bird hiding among them: the Cackling Goose. Cackling Geese summer in northern Alaska and Canada, and many spend their winters in the Pacific states and the southern Great Plains. But every year a number show up on farms and waterways along both coasts, sometimes spending November through March in their own flocks or embedded in gangs of Canada Geese—both delighting and confounding birders who seek them out.
