More on those geese we saw today...They really are called Nile Geese.. they were imported from Egypt as a decorative bird and have now spread in Holland so that according to one site there are 1000 breeding pairs.. We saw quite a few of the lovely creatures today so I guess we can consider ourselves blessed, but on the other hand I didn't win the New Year's lottery here..
 
The Nile goose was sacred to the god Amen.. an interesting link..
