Great sequence of shots showing bird behaviour. Gives real meaning to the expression pecking order

That was a great meal ~ you must have a good set of pans

Wonderful behaviour series. But anyone who grew up on a farm with a flock of geese knows damn well they ain't shy and retiring. Many ranchers use them as guard dogs.

Nice one Graham - I think they only feed them to give them the energy to fight 24/7.
