Here's another shot of a Hawaiian, or Nene Goose, taking a drink at Slimbridge WWT. If your unfamiliar with these birds please click here for more information, it's quite a story.

Btw I went down to Slimbridge today especially to capture the baby Ducklings but alias there were none to be found. )o:

They were probably hiding from you, Phil. Next time, wear a goose suit and confuse them. LOL. Beautiful shot of this endangered goose. Excellent all the way around.

It is indeed a very beautiful duck. I am glad to hear that the populations of them are being brought up in number.

Rather similar to the Canadian goose. Very nice capture of this rare specimen Phil.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Looks like it has its waders on Phlossie. Glad they are being protected. Excellent, clear photo.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

I have been to Hawaii 4 times and have yet to see the elusive Nene, in fact I never saw a common seagull either. but I have seen the rare Silversword is considered a threatened species of plant which is only found on the island of Maui.
thanks for posting photos of the Nene since I will never see one in the wild.
