a comedy in four acts:











He did a full somersault. He was fine though and immediately took off in the other direction to keep threatening the other pair of geese daring to swim on his patch of canal.

They are territorial buggers!

Thanks for granting me access. I've opened mine up for you!

[bookscorpion]

They really are, there is a lot of honking and threatening flights going on on the canal right now.

Thank you for the access in return!

Hee, overenthusiastic defense leading to ungainly splash seems a perfect example of hoist on your own petard.

[bookscorpion]

The reason why he tripped is that he clipped his mate over the head with one wing, so it's even more on point

LOL

Great set of photos! Thank you.

[dewline]

Oops!!!

Your photos could be a comic strip, too funny!

[bookscorpion]

They definitely are much more funny when seen like this vs showing people irl :D

[turlough]

Poor agressive goose! Though I have to confess to laughing out loud.

[bookscorpion]

Oh I absolutely burst out laughing right there :D I was glad to see him fly though and to know that he didn't hurt himself

[scytale]

Delightful! Also those are some beautiful action shots

[bookscorpion]

Thank you! I had been sitting on the little deck by the canal for a while, hoping to catch some in flight shots and I am so pleased these came out mostly in focus as well as funny :D

[chestnut_pod]

Hahaha, oh no!! He looked so elegant and "excelsior!" in his first beauty shot!

[bookscorpion]

He recovered his dignity pretty quickly (and he doesn't know so many people in farway places now have seen him faceplanting)

[pilottttt]

My applause to you! You've caught a great moment!
