Love at First Bite!

At first, it appeared that these geese had issues of right-a-way! More likely it is attraction that set them on course.
I loved their poses and the great color in the water. This scene is at Delta Ponds.

these guys spend almost as much time arguing with each other as gulls and jays do. ;-)

Oh boy are they territorial! While golfing we see quite the drama and although we hate their leavings, its fun to watch the action and the kids grow into awkward teens and finally getting their color. Now they are spending more time in the river. Next step will be flying lessons. Linda S

A pretty shot, lovely patterns on the water, maybe some argument over who owns this patch of water.
