I had a nice stroll around Shakerley Mere this weekend and enjoyed watching the children feeding the ducks.
The Mallards, Canada Geese and the Black-headed Gulls were also enjoying the attention they were getting.
The goose above was very interested in my camera and got very close giving much amusement to the kids.

Enjoyed this post, Andrew! It made me smile - great start for my day.
Great timing, the top shot is fantastic! What a funny capture the 'Hello' goose is. :-)
Great mallard shots Andrew and watch those Geese they're Canadians remember. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Great flappy Mallard Andrew!
Magnífiques captures!! Et felicito pel bon treball, una cordial salutació.
Great captures Andrew.
excellent look at the mallard--I enjoyed your heading---lol
Great photos of the duck with its wings stretched.
Hi - thanks for having a look at the Kookaburras. Mallards are a bit of an issue down here - they inter-breed with Pacific Balck Faced Duck (a native) and you end up with some strange looking combination which is not as good as either of the origianls.
Think you may enjoy my other blog as well if youy get time to have a look. http://payingreadyattention.blogspot.com/

I have not seen the Canadian goose yet, but he Greylag goose has started to arrive. The canadian maked great BW shots. :)
Nice photos Andrew. You want to watch those Canada Geese as from personal experience I can tell you that they can give a nasty nip!
The Canadian is a very handsome chap, indeed. The only geese I've seen lately were high overhead and flying north. Great shots!
Wonderful shots, they third one down is my favorite. I love the look on the HELLO face.
I like the tall one! Stretching out, looks like the yoga pose I did in class today ;>).... YOur clever post title really caught my eye and your pictures delivered the goods. Very nice post.
Lovely photos and well captured. Bravo!
Have a nice day.
You've had a nice play with the pix here.
Even managed to make a duck look good :-)
Love your humorous post title and the Mallard lives up to it! Nice close-ups of the Canada Goose!
