The Canada Goose gets mixed reviews: they can be messy, noisy, territorial and damage crops (not one of our most popular exports!). There are times though when I appreciate the Canada Goose and this is one of those times. The bird had just taken a drink when it seemed to pause and stare at it’s reflection. I took this photo in early October when the trees were beginning to change colour and caused the effect on the water that you see here.

I love, love, love Canada geese! Aside from the Common Loon, theirs is one of the sweetest sounds in wild nature. I’ve been watching their V-shaped flocks fly over me for…as long as I can remember.
This is a beautiful photo, thank you.

What you say about the Canada goose is true, but this is an excellent picture. The reflection really makes all the difference.

I always enjoy seeing the Canada Goose when I see them on our local canal. This is a wonderful photo, with beautiful light and reflections. The decaying log makes for a great focus and balance.

They might be your biggest export. I see as many in the south as New England. 😀
