'Not In Front Of The Children!' - More From The Egyptian Geese

After I had taken the photos of the young EG's as they basked in the sun, I walked a few yards towards the Great Crested Grebes and started taking photos. All of a sudden there was an almighty ruckus back where the EG's were. Two adult Egyptian Geese were really going at each other in the water. The other adult and the youngsters were all in the water and were honking/squeaking loudly as the fight started getting nasty. Eventually the interloper backed down and swam off, leaving the family unit to re-unite on the bank and continue their preening and sunning.

The vanquished...
