This guy actually came out of the water and started after us as we were on our morning walk. They are beautiful but to me, a little intimidating. Enjoy and thanks for coming by today. Anita

This is a lovely photo, so peaceful and natural with the lighting. The blues of the water are soft and comforting.

What wonderful composition, Anita, and he looks so innocent. I'm told, though, that the best watch dog you can have is a Canadian goose! Thanks for this!

This is a pleasant image. I like the water gradients, and the reflections, also the wisp of green is a nice touch.

This is very lovely. The sun reflecting on the water and the little bits of green in the righthand corner really add to this shot of a beautiful bird.

Excellent with the greenery in the lower right and the water looks great and the goose...I'd stay away from him too even if he does make a lovely shot! Very lovely shot, Anita.

Geese can be very aggreessive. I don't know what they could do to you if they actually "captured " you but they sure can put a scare into you. She must have had babies nearby. Nice work.

Nice shot Anita. I wouldn't think intimidating as much as an arrogant annoyance - they are ALL OVER my complex here because we have 2 large ponds/mini lakes... they think they have a right to get territorial with me when I am walking too. Here's a scene to imagine, me 4 or 5 months pregnant walking to the pool with my suit on and a swimming noodle - they started hissing and running at me and me being a hormonal prego started swinging my noodle at them and yelling about "who pays rent here, me or you?" ... the guy sitting on his balcony had tears rolling down as he laughed at that scene!

I know what you mean about them being intimidating, ha ha ha. I've been chased a time or two myself. :-) It's a beautiful shot though Anita, as always, thanks so much for sharing your adventures with us.
