It seems like the birds were taking turns standing on the log. One morning it was Mallards and the next Geese. It is hunting season and all of the birds are completely stressed out. This log was in the center of Thompson Lake. A good buffer of water all of the way around it. I had to use a 2X teleconverter with my 600 mm lens. The teleconverter adds a little grain to the image. The iso was only 320. A huge loss of light. You get something and you lose something.

It appears they are choosing their pecking order in the lineup Garrett. I like the shimmering reflections. It reminds me of workers waiting for the early bus. Nice post.

Love the colours that radiate from the rock that the geese are standing on, and the white ripples that run across the water brings out the colours in the birds.Very nice shot.

Nice shot of my favorite birds, Garrett. Tho the only thing I hunt with is a camera anymore, it has always amazed me how wildlife seem to know when hunting season starts. They seem to disappear or find safe places on opening day.

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind.
