Canadian Goslings

I don’t particularly care for Canadian Geese. Adults can be very aggressive and they are rather boring to watch or photograph. That said, I think there are few things more adorable than newborns following mommy in formation. Maya spotted these geese near Five Corners last night and I was back early this morning to gather images. Also interested in the gaggle was a lone coyote who patrolled the river bank in hopes of an ambush opportunity. This particular area was particularly rich in wildlife. I have one photograph that contains two dozen geese, a beaver swimming across the river, a great blue heron, and our friend the coyote all in the same frame. Unfortunately, the depth of field was quite shallow and the resulting image is mostly out of focus.
