Run for it! by rjb71

Run for it!

A territorial swan chasing off a Canada goose at Deene park yesterday. This went on for quite a while. The goose would get out of the water and the swan would swim off. Then the goose would get back in and and as soon as the Swan spotted it it would start chasing it again!
What a great action shot!

Great shot and in focus! I tried to take a photo like this a while ago and the birds were always out of focus or just covered by splashes.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you :)
@emma78 Thanks I was lucky but I had also bumped the ISO up a bit to increase the shutter as I was thinking this might happen :)
@hrb73 Thanks. We spent a little while watching them go back and forth. The goose was more scared of the Swan than it was of us!
@pistache Thanks it could be better but that's the curse of photography :)
@elkereturns Thank you :)
@hermann Thank you :)
@onewing Thanks. I like the video clip quite funny :)

@casablanca I don't think it was much of a love story!

@islambad It was fun watching their antics :)
@ehamil1013 Thank you :)

Beautiful!

Great shot Richard. Swans can be very territorial and bad tempered as my dogs regularly discover!

The goose is doing a fast run to get out of there. He can walk on water.

That goose is very tenacious. Such crisp detail.
June 5th, 2018  
This is amazing!
June 5th, 2018  
Great ation shot and such detail - I love the little splahes the goose has mde as he tries to escape.
Poor goose. That swan means business!
June 5th, 2018  
Well captured right place right time.
