Our lake has a layer of ice but some channels are open. The geese alternate between walking on the ice and swimming in the water. They don't seem to mind the cold; they actually splash around and even turn somersaults in the water!Here's one that looks like he's conducting an orchestra! I could hear the horn section honking away!
I enjoy seeing them raise their wings — they look so happy!
Very lovely image! Excellent photography!
ReplyDeleteamazing! I never get tired of them
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! x
ReplyDeleteHa, I love that first picture!
ReplyDeleteThat good, delicious catch, precious pictures.
ReplyDeleteso sweet! look how happy they are!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, they are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIn the spring, when they are hatching their eggs, I can't go out into my back yard because they chase me. I can run pretty fast when a mad goose is on my tail. LOL...
Last year, 3 baby geese got into my window well. We were on vacation at the time and when we came back.... dead babies. I felt bad, but even if I were there, the parents wouldn't of let me get close.
These are such great shots Linda! You are so right, they look joyous and happy to be alive with their heads up and their wings opened wide!
ReplyDeleteLove the white goose in the middle photo with its outspread wings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments! I've been watching the geese since we moved to the lake house and sometimes I can predict when they are likely to rise up and stretch like that. It's usually when they moving around and making noise.
ReplyDeleteThese are great pictures of the geese. I like the picture of the one splashing water, but the orchestra conductor is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos !!
