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.

They've got quite a good wingspan!
ReplyDeleteExtraordinary wingspread. Quite threatening. And these two characters look well fed too.
ReplyDeleteLovely reflections in the water and that second shot is fabulous. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeletelovely reflection in the canal...and yes those birds can be quite aggressive!
