Title: New Friends!
Post by: Mike Barrio on 05/04/2012 at 18:11

I have two new friends!

Haddo regulars will know that we have a pair of Greylag Geese that come to nest every year. For the first time this year we also have a pair of Canadian Geese :roll

The Canadian Geese have made themselves more than a bit unwelcome, as they seem to think that they own the wee loch and have repeatedly attacked both the Greylags and the swans ....... YES, I said swans :shock

But this afternoon ..... a cormorant flew in and landed on the water, one of the Canadian Geese instantly flew from the bank to the cormorant and began to attack and harass the cormorant every time it surfaced, within five minutes ( OK maybe 10 :z4 ) the cormorant gave up and flew away to find waters new! :cool:

Maybe I like Canadian Geese after all :z16

Cheers
Mike

I'll let Mrs MDH know. She will be most pleased! Very patriotic those Canadians.
