The Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) is the only extant representative of its genus and is now mostly classified as a parti-geese. It is of African origin and lives in inland lakes and rivers rich in food. It is considered the most common Afrotropical duck.[1] In recent decades, the Egyptian goose has spread along the Rhine in Central Europe, starting with escapees from captivity, mainly from the Netherlands, and is also found in urban parks, bathing lakes and other places frequently frequented by people (Wikipedia).
