Christmas Day on Clapham Common

Prettier in large ("L").

Merry Christmas!
I went to Clapham Common to bid the Goosles "Merry Christmas"; geese get uncomfortable at this time of year, so I just wanted to check that they were OK... When I arrived, Mrs. was being weird and hiding in her nesting hole in the tree on the island: I really hope that they aren't confused by the weather.

I also visited Mount Pond where there were two swans: the light was amazing, and I had a lovely time photographing them. I've uploaded a Flickr set of my images.

Some favourites:
