Just Following Orders

I was sneaking around one side of a pond trying to snap a photo of these two handsome geese sitting on the water’s edge when I heard two more geese flying low overhead. They sounded like drill sergeants honking orders.

The newcomers not only sounded like they were the bosses, they must have actually been in charge because in a flash, these two flapped their wings and took off in the same direction as their noisy comrades.

    EG: Great shot of the geese, it's so hard to get the flying shot.

    I agree, it is very difficult to get a good in flight shot. Nicely done.

    I've never been able to catch geese in flight but I LOVE to hear the sounds they make when they fly over. Very nice shot!

    Regarding your previous post.... it's the same here... farmland being gobbled up by houses and bog box stores... we even have a dreaded WALMART now, one of the biggest in the country.... I don't really like all these changes.

    Great shot! I got a similar shot of the snow geese when they were flying over a few weeks ago. I love hearing them up there honking their orders hehe

    Hope to see your critter photo for Camera-Critters this weekend.
