A female Goosander with a large fish in their beak, with four more Goosanders chasing her. They are all going from right to left, and there is water spray accross the entire photo.
Four Goosanders chasing another that had caught a big fish. The 30 seconds of chaos surrounding this was something to behold!

A Grey Heron looking forwards at the camera. There are branches filling the background.
The neck and head of a female Goosander. It's looking to the right, with its break slightly open, exposing its sharp teeth.
My favourite is the Heron photo I posted a few days ago, but I like these too. Front facing Heron, and a close-up of a Goosander.

A male Goosander on a lake on its own. There is a muted sepia tone in the photo, with reeds and broken wooden fence panels in the background.
A lone Goosander a couple weeks ago. Thought it was a good fit for today's theme. I find it rather calming to look at!

The head of a Goldcrest peeking out of a tree or bush. Its beak is pointing down to the bottom right of the frame, and its gold streak is visible and vibrant.
I hear Goldcrests in the park fairly frequently, but hadn't been able to get a decent shot of one, until last weekend.

A Coot standing on a mostly frozen lake. A piece of bread that someone had thrown on to the ice is moments away from hitting the ground, having been dropped by the Coot.
There's a lot of spectacular photography for today's theme. This is not one of them, but I thought it was fun anyway. This poor Coot was struggling to keep hold of food on the ice..

The back of a Canada Goose with its wings outstreched. There are water drops frozen in the air across the photo, with some bigger splashes around the goose.
I took this photo of a Canada Goose having a go at another last Summer, and really like the drama of it.
