Taken today at the local marsh, these two were quite tame as they also had some goslings hiding in the reeds.

Nice pics. I love the contrast on the white feathers in the first shot, and the light on its beak!

Excellent comparison shots. The difference is the length of the bill? Is there a size difference in the head?

Thanks, Dennis.
The overall size of the male is larger than the female.

Thanks for commenting, Mitch.
Well, I will return and get some other shots of the babies as well. The ones I took are not what I would call good shots, so a return trip will be needed.
