This lone snow goose had the most beautifully striking black and white markings. It was in the company of two Greater white-fronted geese, grazing on grass in an area frequented by cars, dog-walkers, skateboarders and pedestrians near the shore and a river estuary. All three birds seemed totally oblivious of the activity around them and did not react adversely to any of them!
