I realise this bird is unlikely to win any beauty contests, & some of you would prefer to see one golden brown coming out of your hot oven but I want to add it to my gallery non the less.

According to Wikipedia they are members of the Goose, Duck, & Swan family, how about that hey !

It looks shy and withdrawn Phlossie. I can see it growing up to be a librarian in a Mother Goose Library. Perfect presentation.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

I think it's really cute with that short little bill. I've never seen one like this. Wonderful little creature.

Shy one, indeed .. Must be a lady !!!!
Tick always has to be ahead of me LOL
Cindy too, as I was considering the length of the bill, bird's bill I mean.

He's a really unique looking goose, he has such a short bill. Like the action of the water around him
