This is a domestic goose with Greylag Goose somewhere in its distant ancestry.

The farmyard geese in Europe have the same relationship to true Greylag Geese as Chinese Geese (the farmyard ones) have to Swan Geese ie they have been selectively bred over many generations and are now quite different in appearance.
