Middlefield, Connecticut, USA. A trip to the orchard on this beautiful sunny day offered a few shots of the geese and ducks at the orchard pond. The fish seemed oblivious to this herbivore, even when it dipped its head in the water looking for aquatic weeds. Enjoy!

I love all the little fishies you were able to capture here too. Yes, it was a gorgeous day. It was so still and calm and warm. Beautiful capture, Thad.

The water is so clear and blue Thad. The ripples and the waves add movement to the photo.
The goose is as clear as if he were the guest of honor at Sunday dinner.
Excellent work.

Great looking shot of the Canada Goose! That water sure is a beautiful blue. You think he would like a regular straw, or one of the ones that are all twisted up? LOL.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
