Egyptian Goose

This Fellow did'nt mind my presence provided I did not come too close. This shot was taken in the Austen Roberts bird sanctuary. It is a closed park not far from the city center. Provision has been made for the public to view the bird life from a hide that overlooks a small lake. One can enjoy the quiet and solitude away from the city bustle and enjoy the sounds of the birds.

Very pretty duck, right? Glad that you have a place to view these creatures.

Great shot!

Great photo! How did an Egyptian Goose end up in South Africa? Take a wrong turn?? Kind regards from the "Birthday boy" at EAGAN daily photo
