ID please: One goose at Lake Ginniderra this afternoon

Agree with the ID.  Don't know where you got the 'Introduced to Britain' from.  Native bird there and legally described as such.

Alison,
Looks like a Greylag Goose to me. Introduced into Britain but a native of Europe and Northern Asia. A local escapee no doubt.
