The Egyptian Goose at Community Park - Critter 113

Saturday, May 2, 2026
When walking at one of our community parks, we saw several kinds of birds. There was one particularly strange-looking goose.

Look very cool, we have never seen a goose that looks like that. After googling, it is said that the critter is an Egyptian Goose, origin from Africa.

Since this critter is not our native one, we believe the birds might be:
- ornamental pets, then escaped from nearby owners of our community park.
- migration from our neighbor state, Texas.

In case of Texas, population of Egyptian Goose is quite abundant, because the bird is good in adaptation to state warm climate and there are fewer natural predators, especially in urban landscapes.

We saw another migration duck, a whistling duck. They came from Mexico for breeding in our areas.

Have you seen Egyptian geese in your areas?
