Watch The Birdie

Part of my job here at FAP Towers is to upload photos onto the FindaProperty.com area guide pages.

Most of the photos are as per the brief: they give you an idea of what it’s like to live in a particular area. So, house styles, local amenities, shops, pubs, green areas, transport links and waterfowl.

Wait, what? Waterfowl? Read on and I’ll explain…

Having looked through thousands of photos over the past two years it seems that our feathered friends are getting in on the area photo act.

Showing the same dogged (quacked?) persistence of a Z-list celebrity at a B-movie premiere the avian aquatic crowd are somehow catching the eye of our intrepid area snappers to ensure they appear in the photo galleries.

Overall it seems that swans play it cool with effortless elegance – yes I know I’m beautiful, you may take my picture.

Geese however display a certain bad boy aggression – take my picture or I’ll effin’ peck you, see if I don’t.

And the ducks? Well they just sit there looking funny. I’ve never met a duck that didn’t make me laugh.

So in honour of all their breast puffing and leg showing, here are the Jodie Marshes and Callum Bests of the bird kingdom, shamelessly strutting their stuff for FindaProperty.com.
