Mom was setting on the nest keeping the kids (eggs) dry. And the Ducks were just playing in the rain.:)

Great set! Beats the heck out of the white stuff that you folks have endured this Winter.

Erv, I've taken hundreds of Canada goose shots and observed many more from others. I must say your capture is one of the best I've ever seen.

First, brown and gray isn't the most intriguing, so your setting among the colored leaves certainly adds interest. The water beading really adds a sense of how they are adapted to their environment and makes a static image come to life. #2 has it all.

Thanks for sharing.

Mother nature sure does wonderful things that we don't really see all the time. She let me get pretty close before she hissed at me.:):)

Thank you! I have a wonderful place to work as far as taking walks on my breaks. They do get mad if you get to close. Last year I got beat by one of them with their wings for getting to close.:):)

Great shot I really like the goose. I assume she was on the nest or had little ones under her wings.

Thanks BT! That will be tonight.:) They say we might get a little more snow. I will have to drive up to work and see what she looks like white. Feel sorry for she sitting there when it is still cold here.

Thank you Greg!!! She picked a beautiful spot for me.:):) We will be having a lot of little ones around. So far I have counted 8 pair living on the lake. The Ducks are just now pairing up. But this year there seems to be a lot more males than females. I feel sorry of the ladies.:):)
