I mistakenly called this a duck in my post of one last year. (I always forget to read the plaques at the zoo.) LOL. This is a gorgeous shot of the handsome goose, Phil.

A Bar-Headed Goose, it does what is says on the can. Good portrait of an interesting looking goose.

You should have goosed him so he would have gotten all his tail feathers into the scene Phlossie. Just kidding, it is a great shot.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

Over 33,000 ft.! And no pressurized cabins - I wonder how they can survive that. God's creatures have so many mysteries. Nice and sharp image Phil.

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

This high flying goose is well named with those black bars across his head.

Hi Phil,i hadn't seen this Bar Headed goose picture before,it is really cute,i see a Bar Headed goose at a local pond all year long (except when nesting),they are smaller than other geese,its call is similar to ducks,they are grey with a bit of white and brown,they have a yellow beak and yellow feet,they can also have orange feet,it is one of the world's highest flying birds.@ Raj,they have something special in their blood so that is why they can fly at high altitudes (8000-10000 m - 26000-30000 ft or more).I will see the local Bar Headed goose tomorrow :) .
