    The Egyptian Goose is the common wild duck in South Africa (we do not have true geese), having colonised the city parks. Actually its quite a striking duck and its aggresive nature makes it quite a colourful character :)

    Fantastic capture of the goose, Chris. I was in Kruger last week but sure did not get this shot. Great detail on goose and nice background. Thanks again for your PSSA presentation--what excellent images!!!
