The owl of wisdom and understanding stared at me!

I have been searching high and low to find the Egyptian goose nest! Now I know that she is on her nest everyday, as the male is up on the roofs alone every day keeping a look out.
Then I saw the wooden owl in the photo above and I knew that I will never find the nest.
Let's have a look!

I know his greeting call as she landed on the street lamp!
The guy is ecstatic every afternoon when she arrives for supper and a bath!

But first some super zoom stuff here!
Can you see them on the street lamp here?

Look a bit closer, second pole from the right pole!

Still closer and I am sure that you can see something at the top of the pole here?

Ah! There he is and he was waiting for her!
If you still can't see something here, then I humbly suggest that you should fetch your spectacles. And if you don't wear spectacles, then I humbly suggest that you get some Lol

You can see that our guy has had a long day alone!

But here he heard something and suddenly all of his tiredness disappeared!

How's this for a greeting? He pushes his chest out and let's rip with a series of very loud quacks!

This guy is so happy to see his wife that he cannot stop honking!
I humbly hope our male readers have the same exultation when their wives return after being away for the whole day LOL

Here she was coming in for her supper!

And like a true gentleman he waited until she landed safely before he came in!

And of course he lets her eat and drink first while telling her about his day!

Nobody tell me that an Egyptian goose is not a good flier. Look at this guy go when they left for the night!

The owl was correct, as I think her nest is somewhere in the bushes below the mountain.
I will surely not find her nest and we can only hope that she will bring the babies when they come to eat. That should be a while still, but we are really looking forward to seeing the small ones.

We hope you have enjoyed the pictures, and thank you for visiting a post by papilloncharity@papilloncharity
