What a carry on!

After 3 days of not much of a walk I needed to get out and about today.  Lovely and mild so the coat was discarded as soon as I reached the estate.  A walk around the top of the estate, and then back to the pond - very quiet for a Sunday afternoon.  However I then heard the geese honking and the pond erupted as geese, ducks and goosanders all suddenly decided it was “bath time”.  Too many photos taken so a couple of collages.  It went on for ages with lots of splashing and preening and then all was quiet once again and the birds took to the edges of the lake seemingly for a rest!  Lovely to watch and the photos don’t do it justice!  Collage of the geese and the ducks in extras.
