I really couldn't believe my eyes what happened next. As on queue, the geese either side of the middle one just attacked it and pushed it under the water. Having been watching the developements I'm certain that this was a planned attack. They really attempted to keep the goose underwater for as long as they could. I'm not sure the lone goose knew what hit it. One minute it was floating quite merrily on the lake, the next minute it had two others trying to drown it. A really amazing thing to watch. Never knew that geese could coordinate something like this.

05/21/12  Geese at War II1643
E-P3 Focal Length: 150 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/640 sec ISO: 200 • geese
05/20/12  Geese at War II was in a park one day just enjoying the sun and watching these geese. It was really quite interesting to watch this developement over a 10 minute period. In the image above (taken with my beloved mZD 14-150 on an E-P3) as these two geese entered the water and swan either side of this lone goose.
They swan like this for a few minutes before something happened that really got me thinking.
Exactly what happened? See tomorrows post. 1496
