Inquisitive goslings
These six goslings, with three adult birds following, came running towards us. When they got close the parents started hissing at us.

Lawn with geese
A small area of maintained grass by Poplar Dock. The two geese here seemed to be playing a game of hide-and-seek with their young: the goslings seen in Image had run into the bushes in the foreground, and the parents knew that, but were still looking round as if to say "where are they hiding?".

Poplar Dock Marina
Poplar Dock was London's first railway dock when it opened in 1851. The site was first developed by the West India Dock Company in 1827–8 as reservoirs. They were converted into a timber pond in 1844 and in 1850–1 into a railway dock, following the transfer of the land to the East and West India Docks & Birmingham Junction Railway Company (later the North London Railway Company). The dock, used for coal and export goods traffic, was extended to the west in 1875–7 to provide depots for other railway companies.
Operations at Poplar Dock ceased in 1981, following closure of the India and Millwall Docks, and British Rail sold the site to the London Docklands Development Corporation in 1982–3. A full history can be seen at www.british-history.ac.uk/survey-london/vols43-4/pp336-341
In this photograph, the O2 Arena can just be glimpsed through the gap in the centre.
