I have to agree with martno1 about the birds on the water.
I think the Best way to look at swans and geese is through a telescopic site.
they make more mess than dog's, they foul slipways and walkways .
the disease they carry is unbelievable, and they are 'blinking!' ferocious.
I have been attacked by the
******** when in a rowing boat, had a small outboard knocked off the boat by a swan
and had my little brother attacked by one.
When a youngster even our dog got attacked, but unfortunately for the stupid swan, the dog tore it to bits in seconds.
If you look at the waters edge, you'll see it is a man made structure not a natural lake.
Never had duck in orange sauce, sounds pretty good to me.
far too many foolish people taking bread down to the water to feed the swans geese ducks etc, it makes them keep
coming to people.
and bread is very bad for them as well.
nice model by the way
