Swans, Geese, And Ducks, Swim To Side Of Lake At Ellesmere.
What are you doing? Throwing some bird seed into the side of the lake at Ellesmere, to feed the swans, geese, and ducks. Did you have swans in China? Yes. Sometimes a white swan was called a 'Heavenly Goose'. Where did you get the bird seed from? Danny gave it to me, and he said he had bought it at Tesco's in Wrexham.
'''''Ellesmere is a small market town near Oswestry in Shropshire, England.
The town is located by the side of The Mere, the largest natural lake in England outside the Lake District and one of nine glacial Meres in the area (a Mere is fed by natural springs whereas a lake is fed by streams or small rivers). A local legend is that a ghostly white lady can be seen wandering around the mere.
The mere contains an artificial island, constructed in 1812 from the soil dug out to make the gardens at Ellesmere House. It was later named Moscow Island, as Napoleon's defeat in Russia also took place in that year. The mere has a visitors' centre and are popular with birdwatchers, many of whom visit to see Grey Herons nesting.
