Greylag geese, in for winter…

Greylag geese, in for winter…



–  About 200 arrived on the site at Mazères in the south of in a frantic commotion!

They settled far, out of reach for our lenses, but in the middle of morning small groups formed to graze on the banks.

One of those came towards us and settled to feed on the grass, drink, rest and preen.

L’Oie cendrée – Environ 200 Oies cendrées sont arrivées sur le site à Mazères dans un vacarme sympathique! Elles se sont posées loin, bien hors d’atteinte des objectifs mais en milieu de matinée, de petits groupes se sont formés pour pacager sur les berges; l’un d’eux est venu vers nous et s’est installé pour se restaurer, boire, se reposer et faire leur toilette.
