What is the bean goose?

Bean Goose is a large to middle bird that behaves in the northern regions of Europe and Asia. These geese belong to the Anatidae family and are sometimes divided into two separate species: Anser fabalis or Taiga Bean Goose and Anser Serrirostris or Tundra Beans. In general, Taiga Bean Goose is bigger than her counterpart and has a longer and narrower account. There are also five subspecies that differ in body size and size and shape of their accounts. These geese will usually have clearly orange legs and an account that is black on the tip and base, with a narrow or wide stripe of orange along the center. Gease Bease carries a dark brown shade and their feathers are generally lined with white.

Since gray goose is a well -known look, bean goose is an ordinary bird in many areas of Europe and Asia. In the northern regions of Asia, Russia and Scandinavia, there is a higher concentration of these birds because they tend to behave in these regions. Although they were abundant in Britain and Scotland during the beginning of 19th.Flying, they are now considered unusual winter visitors that migrated only in small numbers to certain places. Despite the fact that these geese are relatively rare in many areas, since 2011 their state of preservation has been evaluated as "least concerns" because their number was abundant and showed no signs of decline.

In general, these birds can be seen in small pods or in groups around flooded fields and wet pastures. They are usually not social birds and usually nourish and nest in open areas and fields that are not inhabited by other animals. These geese prefers places that carry abundant permanent rye grass, but it is also known to graze fruits, plants and seeds, as well as potatoes.

In addition to their other food terminals, it is known that these geese consume stubbles from the bean fields. During the winter months, they graze carelessly in the empty fields. In fact, both their common and scientific name originated as a reference to this custom.
