Spent a few hours at Busch Gardens yesterday. I hope I got some good photos to share over the next few weeks.
We went to the park a couple of Tuesdays ago for an hour or so. There was a field trip of some sort there. Lots of kids, and lots of geese filled the parking lot watching the kids come in from there boat rides. This was one of the many bold feathered friends that approached our van looking for a hand out.

Yay! I'm here first. Maybe. If I can type quickly enough.
Lovely goose shot. Almost black and white. You could do a penguin like this too. And it wouldn't even mind being stuck in teh freezer for half and hour.
Absolutely exquisitely beautiful shot.
Suby
nice close up.
Precious. It seems the ugly patito at the end of the story, when account occurs of which he is beautiful and beautiful.
Love the expression :) Nice detail.
Nice portrait shot :-) but in my mind it would be look better if the goose where on the right side of the photo or just looking to the left :-)
I'm baaaaaaack!
Very cute, and lovely lovely stuff.
GREAT GREAT GREAT SHOT!
Cool bird, great picture :D
Aw, isn't he cute. I love animals, as you know, but these geese are a bit bold and their populations are amazing. Here in Charlotte, you see them everywhere, except downtown. I guess that they don't like the traffic or something.
Lovely photo.
awwwwww he posed so nice for you!
A wonderful close up. I like it's round and curious eye! great job!
This may be my favorite shot to date!
Makes me smile!

This pic is really Qwackers! Nice shot.
Geese and ducks are so cute :)
Wish the goose had soom room in the photo to look 'into'.
Lovely! I had the same idea today. I was at the park for a few and got some silly ducks.
nice goose!
I'd say, "Nice goose!" like the previous comment, but that just seems so rude somehow...
This end of the Canada goose is fine. I find the other end more problematic! Thanks for this shot.
Love the composition here. Simply outstanding! I quickly browsed through your archives and I see a distinct film look in many of your images. Nice to see.
Yesterday I got 30 rolls of 6x6 film back from the lab. It was such a joy to lay those down on the lightable...
Nice shot Micki! I always think that Canada Geese have a plastic looking beak! :D
nice shot. love the composition
Neat portrait I’m sure he’d want to send back to his folks in Canada. A very successful bird judging by my locals.
Thats a cool pose of the goose !
Liking it...a portrait of a duck.....7.75/10
Clearly, the goose knew you were to arrive with cameras since he's quite obviously dressed in formal wear and ready for his close-up :-)
Love that 'expression'
