A little altercation spotted on the way to our next destination....
"Ours is a very superior pond, ours is"
"Plenty of room for everyone, and all so peaceful this morning,
just one man fishing and a couple of chaps taking photos"
*Absolutely perfect, ain't it?*
*Oh no, what's that I can hear?"
"COME ON, GUYS, THERE'S A GREAT PLACE OVER HERE"
"NEVER MIND THE CARS. THEY'LL WAIT"
"IS THAT EVERYONE? ALL PRESENT AND CORRECT!"
"THIS WAY. QUICK MARCH!"
"NOT MUCH FURTHER NOW"
"OK, we're off!"
"SEE, PLENTY OF ROOM FOR EVERYONE!"
"But we'll be back, we'll be back"
Take care
Was there a 'beak off'? Our resident birds do not take kindly to interlopers.
ReplyDeleteI am very happy to see those CANADA Geese marching in smart formation in so resolute a manner, announcing their superiority to all the world. I shall reach for my hockey stick, stand erect and sing the national anthem!
ReplyDeleteSo funny - but also so true. Canadas have taken over completely round here. Few other geese, no ducks, no swans.
ReplyDeleteThe colours and the birds…spectacular!
ReplyDeleteFun post...in the spring there are a lot of Canada geese in our neighborhood. And they just stroll down the streets here as if they own them. But as I was leaving the neighborhood one morning, when I got to the highway and stopped waiting for traffic one was strolling along the side of the highway ...when the traffic passed it raced across the road...I have never seen that before or since.
ReplyDeleteHow funny. I wouldn't argue with one Canada Goose on a mission let alone all of them. No wonder the other geese beat a hasty retreat:)
ReplyDeleteI like the little story you have written to go with your sweet photos, John!
ReplyDeleteDidn't know you had Canadian geese there, too. Where will they go to next?
ReplyDeleteThank you for my first laugh of the day. Such sweet photos and funny captions. (NewRobin13)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great story giving the view of the geese. They are very aggressive birds.
ReplyDeleteWe have Canadian geese that fly over to the canal each morning, they seem to have taken over the waterways.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post and funny narrative. Thanks, John.
ReplyDeleteFrom a senior who brought home 3 baby ducks from a park and hid them in a pan under her bed to "save them" to no avail due to grandma finding them out....you can see how much I love birds. What a lovely day to start my day....beautiful shots. Thanks! From the base of the mini-mountain in Maine. (P.S. No worries: Uncle drove the ducks and me to return the babies to the park manager.)
ReplyDeleteA wonderful illustrated story, John.
ReplyDeletethank you for this story
ReplyDeleteMe llama la atención, el ordén que guardan desfilando.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo.
The geese army is looking impressive. So much geek energy too
ReplyDeleteHere the white geese just seem to merge with the Canada geese.
ReplyDeleteYour post made me chuckle!
ReplyDeleteCanada Geese seem to be everywhere. Great dialogue.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great photo opportunity John.
ReplyDeleteMay I congratulate those above who correctly referred to these wonderful birds as Canada Geese. They are not Canadian Geese.
ReplyDeleteOh this was funny! Thanks for a giggle with my coffee.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos, thank you.
ReplyDeleteA delight to read, thank you, John!
