The White-bellied Brent Goose {Bernida brenta glauco- 

 gaster, Brehm) is an uncommon autumn and winter migrant 

 to the British Islands. It inhabits the Arctic Regions, and 

 migrates southward in autumn and winter. This goose is 

 distinguished from Bernida brenta by having the under 

 parts below the breast almost white.
