A goshawk and a domestic goose clash in the snow outside Moscow. The picture was taken by Vladimir Meshkov, who says: "I saw the goshawk circling and started to watch it through my camera. It landed in a tree before suddenly swooping towards some houses where it spotted a goose. Then they started having a scrap. It was quite rough and lasted a good while. There were some awful sounds - it was really loud and there was a lot of flapping. The goose gave the goshawk a huge peck and it flew away as fast as it could - while the goose got back to doing what it was doing before just as though nothing happened."
