Upland Goose (Chloephaga picta) - 18Feb2022

It's always good to bag a lifer on your Birthday!  These Upland Geese were seen in Terra Del Fuego in Argentina directly before boarding the boat that took me to Antarctica.  They look and act like true geese but are more closely related to ducks and specifically shelducks. The first two photos were taken from the bus that took us to our boat.  The next couple pics were taken from the boat!  This species can be found in far south Argentina, Chile and the Falklands.
