This picture shows a small gaggle of geese at Home Farm on the Temple Newsam estate.
Anyone who has ever been chased by even a small number of geese will know why the Romans kept them as guard dogs, they are very effective. To be fair they only have a small number of geese at Temple Newsam and they are no way as aggresive as the Canada geese living in and around many public lakes and canals.
These geese are I discovered Chinese geese and like all geese if you get too close they hiss!!
