Slimbridge (Pt II)

This week I continue from last week's blog.  All the images were taken in the collections, but spot the wild bird that had sneaked in!


Caribbean Flamingo




Ruff






Goldeneye





Jackdaw (Yes, this is the wild one)





Bewick's Swan











Trumpeter Swan





Carolina Wood Duck







Hooded Merganser






Chiloe Wigeon








Patagonian Crested Duck





Greater Flamingo












Bar-headed Goose








Lesser White-fronted Goose




Emperor Goose






These last few images of geese were all taken near Puddleduck Corner.  I went through the little wooden gate to where there is a bench.  As I was sitting on the bench more birds wandered over.  They were sitting or standing at my feet like children sitting round for a story.  I ended up half lying on the seat (to improve my point-of-view) and taking photographs.  You've seen for yourself just how laid back my subjects were.




Red-breasted Goose






Hawaiian Goose (Nene)






Lesser Magellan Goose  ♂
