First Geese pic for me...First birds in motion pic for me... and it was a cloudy day.
The Stats: Canon Rebel XTi, 70-300mm lens, 1/2000 at f/5.6, 300mm, ISO 400, handheld, cropped in PS at about 200%, blown up from there to about 800x600 to the largest size you see here. no sharpening. I had to try it.
I love the poor guy in the back who seems to be having a hard time with his landing/takeoff gear compared to the perfect angle of the leader in front...perhaps flying lessons?

NOBODY GETS IN TO SEE THE WIZARD! NOT NOBODY, NOT NOHOW!
Nice photo! It looks like they are hunting humans. Did they catch any swimmers for lunch?
Wonderful photo PJ!

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Hoi, PJ!
This is a beautiful image, but,
it's a bit pity that the wings of the birds, having the same color as the stroke (black) background!

确实，我们对心灵里面发生的东西的观察，看来从来不能超出我们自己的意识所限制的范围。但是，表面现象往往具有欺骗性。
Hillarious shot, PJ and it made me laugh out loud. Looks like something animated by Walt Disney. Excellent capture - well done!

We make a living by what we get; but we make a life by what we give.
This one's a real keeper P.J.. Great action, love the droplets of water flying everywhere, those magnificent tail feathers, and of course that great look on the face of the guy in back....very good!

Live every day as if it's your last... and take "pictures" of it ;)
Good one for your first try, these are fun to do. So you got the 300mm lens, that's a good one. Look forward to more like this. Nice action photo, the guy in back must be a smoker.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
Do you know how long I've been stanting by the canal waiting for my geese to give me this snap, you captured it well. The one at the back think is a canib, lol.
