I love disco dancing and I like to think that I am just as good as John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever

Hello - I am "Onkers" and probably the most famous resident on the River Exe. A few years back I was known as "the goose that thought he was a swan". Recently, I found a new family but that is another story and more photographs will come soon!
I hope that you will enjoy the two galleries of photographs, I am really a very clever goose!
