There were a lot of greylag geese in Oslo, though more Canada geese. These are the ancestors of the domestic goose. Another first, though not as exciting as the commong goldeneye.
The 1st trip of 2023 and a trip to Slimbridge, Gloucestershire on 9th January.
A Canada Goose flying over the Tack Piece lagoon.
The Canada Goose is a large goose, with a distinctive black head and neck and large white throat patch. An introduced species from North America, it has successfully spread to cover most of the UK. It forms noisy flocks and is often regarded as a nuisance in areas where large numbers occur on amenity grassland and parks.
At Carondolet Park, sitting alone, near to but apart from a gathering of Canada Geese. At first I thought this was a cross between the occasional Mute Swan and a Canada Goose but on searching found out he is a legit goose breed in his own right.
While photographing at Centerville Island in Toronto, this goose came right up to me, perfect time to capture it !

This Canada goose had the whole pond at Haus Dellwig.
Maybe not as majestic as swans, but still a lively flock, with adults keeping a close watch on the youngsters.

Another reworking. Being housebound at present one needs to keep busy. I was disappointed with the burnt out head on this shot but modern tools have rescued it. (Photoshop CC and Nik Suite).
