It's time I start to pay more attention to my number one rule: it's not about the bird.

If you aren't certain, They may be 'Hutchin's' Cackling goose, if in Colorado.
( one of four species of Cackling -similar to Canada )
Size looks overall smaller than the Snow Goose with short neck ,short bill, to me.

There may be a Canada in the middle -back.

Don't ever recall seeing a TriColor Heron laying in the water.

Hey nice snipe! I'm having a devil of a time getting close.

 

[Marilynne]

Thanks stosh. Those were with the 200mm and the 1.3x crop. Went back yesterday with the 600mm and it was no where to be found.

Got only one shot in before he was too far to bother.

I like it yeah but selling ain't my thing. I had a couple of reasonable shots of this fellow but on their own they were just that; shots. By putting them together I could create a scene and anyone watching that scene can make up a story.
