Magpie Geese

An old photo I happened across, depicting one of the world's great wildlife spectacles.
These are Magpie Goose, a tropical goose, part of a flock of about half a million that gathers annually to feed on bulbs of Water Chestnut at Mamukala Wetland in Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australia.

It must have been amazing to witness this - the huge number, the sound, the activity. I wonder if there are still that many 20 years later. Not as many geese around here as used to be.

Le format en panorama est formidablement bien réalisée pour admirer ce rassemblement d’oies.

The sound must be incredible as is this event. Super pano to capture the size of the flock.

an astonishing sight, and cleverly depicted in pano form...it would seem the species is doing well despite global challenges on wildlife..
