This was taken at Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge near Broadkill Beach in Delaware. There were thousands of Snow Geese there. The noise was deafening.

Never seen so many geese together before Jimbob. Fantastic shot of the birds at sunset. This will make a good entry for the contest too.

Stunning capture and lighting JimBob!!! I used to live close to a lake and I agree with you about the noise. It wasn't as noticeable during the day, but maddening at night! I hope this will be your entry for the Golden Hour contest.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

I think everyone thinking about winning the Golden Hour contest better think about second place JimboB. As good as it gets.

Way to go on this one, outstanding. Did you lure them closer with crackers? or maybe a loaf of bread. Now you're asking for trouble!

There are certainly a lot of them JimBob - I remember when You used to photograph a few or maybe a dozen at the park. I believe You when You say it was deafening. Good Luck in the contest, Jim.

Wow, I can imagine the sound was deafening. Maybe they are deaf. Such a beautiful scene with great amber ambiance on sky and sand.
