8th June 2009

GEESE! Look Dad, geese! Dad, they've got baby geese - lots of them in a big group with the adults all round protecting them.
My nose is twitching and my ears are pricked. They smell VERY interesting, and they're making some curious honking noises!
Can I chase 'em? Dad, can I? Can I??

Dad: NO!

You'd better be careful lest you end up the one being chased!

I just love the fence line perspective here. You got a good POV. Great catch of Pooch's hunting stance. I agree with everyone else, geese bite too. I've been attacked by a group of adult geese when trying to photograph the goslings. I had to run to my car!

Pooch, watch out for the swans - now they are nasty when its comes to dogs.. (Java got attacked by a swan!)

Go on, run!

Good call Dad, Geese can be mean, and I am sure they would have put up a fight !!! : )

Wow, what a huge clutch! No, I wouldn't take on Mum & Dad Goose, you'd be a very sorry Pooch!

I'd keep away from them, they can be kinda nasty.

Oh, no! They´ll pinch your ears and tail if you chase the goslings. Safer to chase pheasants...

Careful now!

Oh no Pooch, they can be very nasty.

Careful, Pooch. Mom and Dad make a lot of hissing noises if you get too close. That is quite a brood of goslings here.
