My attempt at featuring what is now quite a hefty backlog of duck photos is on hold again. You may recall that a week ago I posted about an unusual goose at Falmer Pond, and speculated on whether it was a hybrid of a Canada and Greylag goose. I’m no closer to answering that question, but now have a pair them to wonder about.
The two geese were gliding across the pond when I arrived, early morning.
Yellow legs and a broad white face patch are the main distinguishing marks. Canada geese have black legs.
They are very much a pair.
They also hiss a lot!
Or is it ‘kiss a lot’?
That’s one heck of a tongue!
If you do know what species of goose these are please let me know, here or via the Permuted Twitter feed.
Camera note: all photos taken with the Canon 7D Mark II and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lens.
