Goslings

There they were on the other side of the river, two adult geese with 10 goslings. I took few pictures and waited, hoping they would come across the river. Half hour later my wait was rewarded. As they got closer I got busy taking pictures after pictures. The light was great but the wind was causing too many ripples in the water for my liking. But I was happy to grab few good pictures.

Geese Family

It's that time of the season, the eggs have hatched and goslings are being spotted. Just today spotted few different families and a week ago pair of geese with 10 goslings. But picture here was taken just over a week ago, two adults with two goslings. While I was watching and taking their pictures, they were on land eating. But I wanted and waited for them to get into the water, grabbing few images before they moved too far.

Canada Goose

They're big and they're loud where ever they're found. Which is great, as they let me know when they're about to do something, so I can be ready with my camera. For this picture I was standing next to a large pool of water, I heard the sound of two geese coming from my left side. Quickly located them and started pointing my camera toward them. Took several pictures as they landed front of me.

Canada Geese

Photography is fun, so many subjects to photograph and so many way to do it. When the birds are flying by, I like to slow the shutter speed and pan with the flying birds to get a smooth blurry background. While the subject just enough in focus to make out what it is. Its all about expermenting and saving what looks good. In the case of the two geese, they were standing along the river to the far right of me. When they started to take flight I started to take pictures of them. Got few keepers, including this one.

Canada Geese

Well, the Canada Geese seems to be every where, on the rivers, lakes and open grass area. When I have the camera with me and there is a picture opportuinity, you have to take it. I was walking along the river, where two geese were resting, one standing and one sitting. Throw in the nice contrast between the white snow and the ice, the picture was waiting to be taken.

Canada Geese

I was patiently waiting along side open water, hoping the two Killdeers I was watching would come close enough for a picture opportunity. But just short distance away, drama was taking place. Middle of the mostly frozen lake was a slightly larger open water then the one I was standing next to. Bernard and Sally were busy looking for food in the shallow water when Johnny moves in, whispering sweet nothings he moved towered Sally. Bernard quickly went after Johnny, who took to air. Both yelling with loud voices, followed by Sally trying to assure Bernard, that Johnny played no role. Bernard just as quickly relaxed and  followed Sally away from Johnny, Johnny gaining nothing muttered few words as he walked away.

I think that's what took place, at least according to a Robin who was flying by.

Until next moment,
