Very cool looking shot, sogs! I like how they're all bunched up tight.

Thank you LD. They acted like they were scared.

Cool shot! If you look underneath one of the snow geese at the front left part of your photo, you can see a dark figure of a green-winged teal underneath the goose. I wonder why the teal would want to be there? Hmmm.

Good find, didn't even notice. That same day a few teals and pintails were feeding in the gaggles. If they got too close I noticed some of the geese actually biting and chasing them off! They never really seemed bothered by it though.
