Mr. Goosle

More impeccable in large ("L").

*Gasp* There was a bitingly cold wind, but it was nice to see the Goosles briefly this afternoon.
Mr. was being his usual self (hissing at mallards...) and did some pretty good posing. He then went back to the island to stand watch as Mrs. stayed snugly in her nest.

I've uploaded a few more to Flickr (here, from half way down...):

p.s. I'm way behind; please bear with me. I very much appreciate your comments and feedback, particularly as I'm being less responsive.
