Wildlife in Abbeywood

Disgruntled noticed last night how much wildlife there was in the lake outside of the MOD Abbeywood complex. On the water itself was a flock of over 20 Canada geese, and a cormorant was drying itself out on a post in the middle of the water, shortly before flying to the top of the supporting pillars of the foot bridge to do the same thing. Swans also nested in the area earlier in the year. None of them seemed to care much about the volume of passing traffic.

  1. We were held hostage by the geese after using the McDonald's drive through in the area. They blacked the car from exiting and wouldn't move. The staff had to come out and rescue us by luring them away with a sausage and egg McMuffin.

  2. That's it now. Geese are clever creatures, and now they've learnt how to hold people to ransom.... McDonald's will never be free of avian terrorism ever again.
