A couple from the west of England

[eccles]

First up is a family of Canada geese, which as a species have done quite well in emigrating from Canada and setting up residence in the UK.
Second is a young jay at my local patch. For all you non-Brits, we only have one type of jay here which we call erm.. jays. :D

...and you have a Duck in the back ground a young mallard.
I see the the young Canadian geese are growing, they are the same size as the ones in my area. Nice ones.

Thanks Tony. I'm better at butterflies and dragonflies, and snapping birds is a usually bit out of my league to be honest; some of the posts here are amazingly good.
