That’s ice. I left it in because it seemed to give it some time and place

Mute swans are much prettier than geese, but in some parts of the U.S.,
including Michigan, they’re just as much a problem. They are not a native
species but were introduced from Europe many years ago and are considered
invasive. They multiply rapidly and have squeezed out the native Trumpeter

Not sure of the flying rat reference. They're much more elegant than that!

Nice subject and lighting - I likethe rock in the foreground and the
placement of the goose in the frame. Great highlight in the eye. The
golden light seems a little dark to my eye - hard to get exactly the
right balance.
Amazing that these birds were near extinction a few decades ago. Too bad

Very nice. Looks like you nailed that honker. The geese may be a pain

enough to get a shot off. Good job on that focus.
