Lovely depths of field and the kitty close-ups are delightful and your snowflakes magnificent - is this the nearly-new camera? Female parental unit wonders what sort of geese they are, because they seem a bit reminiscent of visits to Martin Mere WWT Reserve...and look kind of exotic...

Flying Cat from oh deer!


Yep, its the nearly new camera :o) and the more i use it the more i love it! The geese are Cape Barrons, they come from Australia. From what Carolyn said (i think) we have the biggest breeding population of them in the uk here on the farm. Bruce the legendary goose is also a cape barron, but thinks she is a dog.

H from on the farm. oooo arrrr


Oh forgive me, Deckhand. I thought those geese were plastic decoys. Australian, are they now? I did notice some distant resemblance with Robert Gordon Menzies, once Prime Minister of Australia, but dismissed it as one of my imaginings.

...possibly one of your more fevered imaginings...

They must surely be "Colden Geese"

Scallop from Rio de janeiro but not forever !!!!!
