Rare Goose and Cranes - of suspect origin?

Down south seeing relatives, I couldn't resist driving a little further down the M5 to have a wander round Slimbridge. I hadn't expected to see Red-breasted Goose or Common Cranes and got rather excited until I reminded myself how close I was to the captive bird enclosures.
