Greater White-fronted Goose Anser albifrons



The Greater White-fronted Goose (Anser albifrons) is a goose species closely related to the smaller Lesser White-fronted Goose. In Europe it has been known as simply “White-fronted Goose”; in North America it is known as the Greater White-fronted Goose (or “Greater Whitefront”), and this name is also increasingly adopted internationally. In Northern and Central North America, it is colloquially called “Specklebelly” due to the salt-and-pepper appearance of the underside.
