The Snow White Goose

Back in May, I published some photos of a white goose that inhabits my local lake. And an aggressive one, too. I've been back there a few times during the recent cold snap, and here are some more photos, of her, her lake-mates and scenes in the vicinity.


Me? Aggressive? Never!


If he stays down there too long, that will be his swan-song


This was how the weather was...


...but it looked much better than it was.


"Children won't know what snow is!" (Dr David Viner, 2000).
And this was just a dusting, compared what they had with a few miles east


But swans, geese and a coot all know what ice is


So does the white goose


I'm the anserine Messiah! I can walk on water!
