Squawk Like an Egyptian

About a week ago, I happened by chance, on one of those nature sequences that can't help but make you smile.


For reasons best known to itself, a feisty young Mute Swan decided it didn't like three Egyptian Geese trespassing in it's territory, maybe the bank robber masks they appear to be wearing had suggested they were up to no good.


Anyway, the Swan was determined to see them off. The trouble was, that the Egyptians were a bit slow getting the message and continued to stooge around in circles, whilst trying to avoid big boys beak.


Finally, with that indignant expression that all geese do so well, they sauntered off to another part of the lake to find a quieter life.

 
Wilson, Keppel and Betty finally get the message and move on
