Residents at Hawkesbury Lagoon, Waikouiti, New Zealand.
The Black Swan (Cygnus atratus) is New Zealand’s largest wetland bird and was introduced as a game bird from Australia to New Zealand in the 1860s.
Canada Geese (Branta canadensis) came to New Zealand from the United States as a gift from US President Theodore Roosevelt, and there are now so many of them they are sometimes regarded as a pest.
Taken with Canon EOS 450D, not sure which lens was on at the time :) Thanks for viewing, your comments are welcome and always valued.
