Good morning!
by epickett

There were a pair of geese grazing on the McDonald's property when I got breakfast one morning. this is on a major street, so I was surprised to see them here.

I was about 10 feet away, and I cropped to just show this one since the other one was mooning me...

These guys are very messy and from what I hear they are not welcome on golf courses. Nice catch.

He's huge! I don't see any of them around us. You captured him very nicely.

Reminds me of here. You can't go anywhere without finding a Canada goose. They even try to walk across the busy highway. I've never seen one hit, but I've had to stop my car to avoid them. Sometimes these critters will get to the concrete median in the middle and go to sleep. They make themselves to home about anywhere. If there is already a pair by McDonald's, you might suddenly find a whole family to photograph in a couple of weeks. Be careful. They can get very aggressive during breeding season. You might have been pretty close to have this one fill the frame.
