  9. We call this bird 'Nonnengans', literally translated into 'nun goose'... ;-)
    It's feathering really looks like the habit of a nun, doesn't it!?

    Have a pleasant weekend, Bob!

  12. Do they really grow on plants in the marshes then snap off and swim away as the Bestiary says?

  21. They're so cute! We still have some Canada geese, but the barnacle geese are gone for the winter.

  22. I wonder if there was a large flock of them. It's a pity you do not have a wider frame
