Rare winter visitor Bean Goose spotted in Corbett Park

New Delhi: With a bright orange legs and a black top bill marked with an orange stripe along its center there is no mistaking the Bean Goose, a winter visitor so rare that it is seen in the Indian sub-continent only twice before in more than a decade.

A group of bird watchers and researchers to undertake the annual water bird census in Tumariya swamps near the Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand reported sighting a solitary Bean Goose from a number of other bird species.

"A single Bean Goose was seen by five members team comprising Zaara Kidwai, Idris Hussain, Ashok and Satya Pal on December 1, 2011, among a number of species such as the Bar-headed and Ruddy Shelduck Gooze, which are common migrants to the Corbett landscape .

This will later confirmed by consulting several members of the Goose Specialist Group of wetlands International and IUCN-Species Survival Commission, "said Anushree Bhattacharjee, who headed the research team.

The Bean Goose, known by the scientific name Anser Fabalis, is a large to medium-sized birds that breed across northern regions of Europe and Asia. These geese belong to the Anatidae family. They come in two varieties-the Tundra Bean Goose, and the taiga Bean Goose.

"This is sighted in Tumariya was confirmed as a Tundra Bean Goose with experts. They travel south during the winter months in the Artic to temperate and sub-tropical regions. The range of these species usually extends south only to to China," says Anushree.

Tumariya Reservoir is not within Corbett Tiger Reserve, but part of the Corbett landscape falls within the jurisdiction of the Terai West Forest Division. It falls into two districts, part Nainital and Udham Singh Nagar side district. The Bean Goose sighting occurred in the middle that falls within Nainital Dstrict.

The Bean Goose is seen in the Indian sub-continent only twice before. In 2003, it was first reported by a group of bird-watchers in Harike, Punjab that saw a solitary Bean Goose among a flock of Greylag Goose. Since then, there was another record of sighting in Assam in 2007.

This sudden migration is also attributed to the change in weather pattern.

"Global warming and changing weather pattern could be seen as the main reasons for migration. But the study is still going to come to an agreement," says the researcher.
