Wildfowl and their Chicks

Grey Lag Goose and Goslings at Wilstone Reservoir this week feeding on the grass at the reservoir edge....

Scotland - Geese in Flight

Photographs taken in Scotland at the end of September last year.  Skeins of Geese were flying in south on a couple of occasions this day.  They were too far away or high to identify, although I suspect they were the native Grey Lag that frequent these parts or Pink Footed?

Scotland - Grey Lag Geese & Sunset

These Grey Lag Geese were found down a single track road overlooking Fangamore Bay to the north of Tarbet.  What a  great setting and such change from those more commonly found in our parks and fed by the public.

A dramatic sunset later that evening at Ardmair
