Just as a comment...you will find that the vocal majority here are quite hostile to the notion that it is possible to achieve worthy results directly from the camera (read that as "any camera).
You will get the best results by posting such images without comment or distinguishing notes. When responses come back positive, you can later inform that no processing was done.

Excellent suggestion!

Why in the name of heaven would you WANT to change? You are perfect as is, and Hoppy is very happy with you.

I have a couple of comments, but before I put in my nickel's worth, I need to know which camera you plan to mount the lens on.

A couple from the darker side of Christmas humor.
Both made me laugh, but the last one caused a red wine stain on the opposite wall 😂.

After 1/2 dozen hard frosts now!
We have some Irises in the backyard garden that are rebloomers. Typically after blooming in the Spring they'll bloom again in October. Well today is December 9th and this flower opened up yesterday. Canon G7xmkII

Beautiful shot.
When we moved to our "new" home a little over 2 years go, I planted a few iris plants in the beds. Low and behold - those plants bloom twice a year, too - spring and then again in early October. Believe it or not, there are flowers and new buds on them right now!

White Terns are urban sea birds lay eggs directly on whatever surface that's convenient. In this case, that chick was born somewhere on that branch.
Here's an example of a handy location-Mom chose the cup which was formed after a branch was pruned as her "nest". This chick will spend a lot of time somewhere on that branch.

Thank you! Who knew? Not me!

I saw a fuzzy ball on a branch. When I got a view of the pointy end from another angle, I realized that the initial photo was the okole (south end) of a White Tern chick.
Oh my gosh - so cute. How on earth did that wingless ball of fluff get on the branch?

These images were taken about 30 seconds apart. The gander courted her for about 20'. She finally consented, the deed was done, she then needed a bath and he needed to tell the world what a stud he was.
Nice shots, and funny description of the actions!

Saw just the one bird. Not 100 percent sure it is a Snow Goose, if so is it 'way off course.

Looks more like what I refer to as a "regular barnyard goose".

No sky. Nice photo!! The sky doesn't add to the photo. I prefer the frame filled with the closer view of your subject to see more of the details.
