Migratory Bird Stopover

There was a man sitting on a bench down by the water at the Lower Lake at the Rudan nature reserve. He was on the phone with someone while casually throwing bread to the birds so I walked over for a few snaps of the geese.

Flying south for the Winter

Migrating south for the winter. A bit late perhaps, but the geese probably knows best. Flying in formation, I heard them before I could see them yesterday while going for a walk.

Geese

Back in the 1930ths the Canadian Goose was introduced to Sweden. Since then it has spread around Scandinavia and south. Every year the Geese fly south to Denmark and Poland and some continue all the way down to Italy and Spain. I stopped at Upper Lake Rudan yesterday and found a group of Geese there. Among the many Canadian Geese I also spotted a Greylag Goose.
