Another picture of a Canada Goose taken this past Spring...I remember when I took this picture...the flock of Geese were out of pond and I got down on my belly and inched closer to them to get this closeup...

I can see the goose is watching you. Probably wondering what the heck you are doing. Great close shot, Gerry.

Great shot, Gerry. Technically perfect and your post processing almost makes it look like a holograph. Very well presented. Great post.

So that's why that "who the heck are you and why are you crawling around" look in this bird's eyes. Beautiful shot, Gerry.

Professional presentation. On second thought you might mention the belly crawling in your book. Who washed your shirt and trousers by the way. I know how messy Geese can be. lol. Excellent post and Happy Holidays to you and yours. That means Hanna too.

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. - Hermes

An intimate shot Gerry of a bird we are all familiar with
The unhindered sunlight makes for a bold portrait. :D

Both 1 and 2 are (imho) superb images. Wonderful rich colourings and your presentation is second to none.
I am sorry to hear Hanna has had problems and hope she continues to improve.
Pats and hugs for Hanna :)
