Encountering Canada Geese


Walking the towpath of the Peak Forest Canal last week I came across a pair of Canadian Geese opposite the old wharfs. As I approached they slipped into the water, one of them giving me a loud hiss as they did so.


I turned to look at them having passed by and one raised itself out of the water and spread its wings.


They then went on to create ripples in the water before regaining the towpath.

  2. Extraordinary wingspread. Quite threatening. And these two characters look well fed too.
