I love seeing them too. I like eharing them at night or when the clouds hide them. To me it is one of the iconic spring songs. I love your sweet photo of the flock coming home.
Well, now I've done it and started a second album. For those days I can decide or have something more I want to share. I must be nuts!!!
Wow, M. thank you for the fav. It was fun taking those shots. Hope I didn't lie on any doggie present at the park! And, thanks for the encouragement. I will try to keep the second album for those times...not every day.
This really is an awesome exercise which they carry out to perfection. I often wonder who calls the shots, or how they know which one is going to take the lead, drop back, come up close etc. It really is synchronised flying.
Great pic. Where I live, the province is doing quite a bit to dissuade them from coming back. We have too many of them here and they are taking over the city landscape. I`ve even seen them nesting in parking lots and right beside the various intersections.
@russianblue Kass, the same in New York. The geese have taken over golf courses, parks etc. so many people are very unhappy.They can be very messy. I say send them to my yard...I'll take pictures of them.
@littlec I find watching and studying all animals and birds to be fascinating. That's why so much of my year will be animal shots.
They are definitely a study in team work.
Oh. My. Word. I have never seen anything like that, the geese Always make arrows where I am, in groups of like, eight or nine or three. This is ridiculous but awesome!!!
Fab! It warms your heart doesn't it? I often wonder how they decide who leads too? And do they change places sometimes? And what if two or three want to go in different directions? Mind blowing!
The beauty in this picture is the plainness of it. WoW! when I type that out it sounds like an insult, but it's not. You managed to take a something so beautiful as geese flying home and turn it into a spectacular picture. Well Done Margaret!!
