Canada Goose.....

 

 

I have been wanting to take photos of the geese as they fly over our house.  Thef move from the lakes to  commercial ponds as well as farm fields. There wasn't a time when I could get a flock of them but today I could hear some going overhead.  I had my camera with me and I blindly pointed up as the sun was so bright that I really couldn't see them. There were two of them flying low and headed to a northerly direction.  You can see the bright sun in the top picture that was causing me to be blinded from viewing them.  The cropped photo helped bring it in but it is still not a photo of great detail. I basically captured the second one chasing after the first one. 

I always have a story and sometimes I don't tell them.  I always remeber of two high school boys coming up to the library after school grabbing a book to look up something.  I had study hall duty and had not left the library. Doug and Alan were arguing over the way you say Canada goose or Canadian goose. Alan thought he had won the argument and Doug was very upset about Alan being correct.  Both of those boys have grown up and probably have grandchildren by now.  The building was an old brick school house with three floors and that was torn down years ago.
