Pink-footed Goose, Eye Green







Found by a briefly returning Josh Jones, this PfG was a year tick for me, completing the set of scarce geese for 2012 (still need a Banacle Goose though...). The photos were taken to the accompaniment of a riot of Corn Bunting song, plus the nibbling of Mute Swans consuming someone's leftovers from last night's Indian takeaway, at my feet.
