[China] Poyang Lake (2) 鄱陽湖

Interesting pictures of the geese. The birds at the back look like Bean Geese. Plumage and structure looks most like Tundra (serrirostris) but they seem to be very big, larger than the White-fronted. Perhaps these could be similar to the confusing 'large serrirostris' that was in the group at Mai Po recently. Do you have any more photos of these or other Bean Geese from your trip?

And if they can turn up here, then maybe we should keep a look out for some of the other birds shown here, especially with the cold weather forecast for this week. A Tundra Swan, Hen Harrier or Goosander (Common Merganser) at Mai Po would be nice!
