This will be confusing!

Hi folks,

Lets see if I can get this right, front one is a Canada Goose, yes?


Followed by a Greylag Goose.


Greylags and their goslings


Beached goslings, these were slightly older.

Where's my dinner?


Got a bit now, dinner that is.

Everything changed about midday, all the parents gathered up their offspring and swam for the Islands in the centre of the lake to have a siesta.


Suddenly there were no young for a couple of hours and the parents were able to fly around without worrying about the "kids".


Just to confuse you even more.


Me # red/black Fleece, really confused no wonder I'm going grey.

So endeth the lesson.

Thanks for looking.

nite nite, luv Mike XX
