A Day in the Village: Geese, Goslings, and Blooming Bluebells

As I decided to take a walk around my village there was a chill in the air but at least it was fine. My first port of call was the lido. I noticed three Canada geese on the footpath with six little goslings.

Their parents, along with another goose with angel wing, kept a watchful eye on the little ones. The goose with angel wing, a condition that affects the development of the wing feathers, is affectionately called "Wingy" by the villagers. It was difficult getting them all in one shot. I didn’t want to disturb them so I didn't want to get too close.

After walking around the pond, I continued up to my local woods. There, I noticed a few trees had fallen. It looked as though they were in the process of chopping one up.

There are still many bluebells out. It was like walking through a scented garden.

It was a little overcast this morning but little pockets of green foliage popped out.

The last part of my walk was back at the village pond near where I live. This nature walk reminded me of how lucky I am to live in such a pretty village even though the weather was not perfect today. Better weather is forecast soon.
