Snow Geese 1

Posted by Betty (Phillipsburg, United States) on 13 February 2008 in Animal & Insect.

Continuing on the snow goose theme, this series of five were taken this morning. I was returning home from an errand thinking of going up to Merrill Creek to see if the geese were on the water, and they were in a field right next to the highway! Of course I turned around, parked the car and started snapping away. It's not often that they are that close to a road for photos! And they let me approach them without flying away - at first!
