As usual I had to have my dog with me who enjoyed himself running along the water's edge, and suddenly the entire flock started moving, swam across the water to come to a halt near our shore to stare down my dog, among them the bar-headed goose who kept somewhat aloof and whose expression by contrast was as sweet and mild as any bird I had ever seen. As you said, a truly beautiful graceful bird, a little bit of a miracle.Hilke Brederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357741278362930033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27055376.post-60101143176264143422009-10-19T07:17:29.441-04:002009-10-19T07:17:29.441-04:00great post on some interesting rare birds

I've seen the bar-headed goose in the middle of Paris, and I guess it was an escapee. The problem is that they now breed in this area. Same thing with a pair of Egyptian goose that I've seen there with chicks!!! The barnacle goose is more common in France and also in Iceland. It arrives by flocks in March-April here during their migration and then fly off one month later. You're right these geese are awesome and your shots and explanation very nice.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336362938871245037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27055376.post-54926763252313619822009-10-17T08:35:34.370-04:002009-10-17T08:35:34.370-04:00Chris, these are definitely two very handsome gees...Chris, these are definitely two very handsome geese. I have seen both on several occassions in the south & east of UK but the comment is often made "they must be escapees". Who really knows..if only the individual geese could talk!
