A Picture of Confidence

Best on black. I've never had a goose let me get this close - I was kneeling down not 5 feet from him - and he wasn't concerned. When I stood up and walked away he finally got up and wandered off.

He's a pretty guy - you even got a little catch light!

Yeah, not sure what they are thinking sometimes when they do that. Glad of it. Great shot.
