New visitor

This goose is a newcomer to our stretch of the river.  It is people friendly and soon made itself at home for a day.  It arrived yesterday and was happy to join us for feeding time and was on our plank this morning but has been absent all day.

Flare Tail is being driven off her nest much more frequently these days - the shirt's no longer working as a 'scarecrow'.  However she seems to be coping and, during daylight hours, is able to get some wheat and a 'wash and brush up'.
