Good shot Andy. I photographed one of these guys a couple of days ago. Is it unusual to see them alone. Mine was the only one with a group of Canada geese.

Thanks Gerry,
normally this one is amongst the other geese, Canada, Egyptian, Greylag etc when it visits this location. This time is the first time I've seen it alone. I thought it might be sick, but it was eating ok.
