Looking out for the kids

A goose eyes me warily as its goslings feed on the towpath of the Grand Union canal. A moment later it was hissing at me vigorously!

lovely family of Canada Geese, Steve, and a great image overall. very restful and pleasing, - but it wouldn't be restful if the gander started chasing you :) - the hissing can be scarey enough

Thanks Tania - and I like your amusing story, though it probably wasn't so amusing at the time!

Steve this is a wonderful capture. I to love the lighting reflections and the family. Where I lived when I first left my parents home had a guard goose. He attacked me often. Needless to say I got very fit.

Thanks Whittler. Yes, a summer's day stroll along a canal towpath is pretty much a moment in heaven!

I love the sunlight, shadow and reflections here. The geese are magnificent, of course. I like the FEEL of the protector as I stroll through the picture. Great picture, sgbrown.

Thanks Lorraine and Carol. Yes, these geese can be very protective!

These things can be quite stroppy when they have young, a very nice shot.
