A Greylag Goose (Anser anser) swimming on rippling green-tinted water. The bird faces right with its long neck extended upward, showing the characteristic grey-brown plumage with a distinctive concertina-fold pattern of barred feathers on the neck. The wings display dark brown and black flight feathers with pale cream-edged scalloping on the back coverts, while the white belly and undertail are clearly visible. One pink webbed foot breaks the water surface. The bird’s reflection shimmers in the calm water below.

A white Mute Swan sitting on a large, mounded nest built from straw and dried reeds. The nest rests on a metal mesh floating platform anchored in dark water, positioned against a weathered stone wall covered with patches of moss and lichen. The swan is in a resting/incubating posture with its neck tucked back, its orange-and-black bill visible. Small green aquatic plants grow at the left edge of the platform. The stone wall in the background is composed of large rectangular blocks, aged and damp.
