As things were a month ago on West Park lake. One of the greylag goose pairs sheparding their then recently hatched goslings swimming from the direction of one of the islands in the lake to one of the less frequented patches of short grass on the mainland, so the little ones could graze.
The mother goose led the way, then the three goslings all in a line, with the gander as tail end charlie.
When they got to the far side, two of the three goslings were struggling to get up the steep stone wall of the bank.
