There is not much to say about this one. A noisy Greylag Goose at Strumpshaw Fen. Ron

A Greylag Goose struggling to break clear of the water as it takes off in the rain at Strumpshaw Fen on Saturday. It seems to take an awful lot of effort. Ron

A couple of Grey Lags from Cley.

I've already put this in the ID sub-forum a few days ago, but I thought that I'd upload it here as well. This is a Greylag Goose that I saw at my local Reservoirs on Monday, thanks to the BTO I know a bit about it: It was ringed on 15/06/08 at Sevenoaks Wildfowl Reserve, Sevenoaks TQ5256, as a...

A Greylag Goose kicking up an almighty fuss at Strumpshaw Fen on Saturday. Ron

I actually uploaded a different picture, but it looked worse in the gallery than I thought it did, so I deleted it. I'm uploading this Greylag from Friday instead.

Technically, this isn't a good picture, it's not in focus properly, and the shutter speed is too slow. I changed the camera to programmed auto mode to see what the result would be like, and it selected a low ISO with a 125th second shutter. Great for a static subject, pretty useless for the...

Here is another picture by Francesca! Think I'll have to let her make her own registration!!!

Another shot of a Greylag Goose on the frozen marshes at Strumpshaw Fen. Obviously these birds are well protected against the cold, unlike me. The snow has all gone now and I won't be sorry if it doesn't return this winter. Ron

Second round for this image. Newly processed.

This Greylag hangs around near all the gulls at the boat launch in Coxsackie, NY and squawks at all the gulls as if they are in his space. Greylags are techically domestic geese but ones like this one that you see in the wild are several (??) generations from being kept geese!! Still using my...
