Goose

It wasn't just the Coots which were actively preening and primping themselves around Straw's Bridge yesterday.  The Canada Geese too were having a bit of a wash and brush up.
Having sorted out their plumage, they were naturally, keen to show themselves off to anyone who was interested.  Strutting along the water's edge, they made quite a handsome sight.
Some were looking on in admiration (or was it envy?) at the Mute Swans as they glided by looking even more 'salon-fresh'.
The Blackthorn bushes around the lake were also looking rather fine in the sunshine, particularly when viewed against the clear, blue sky.
Beautiful!
