This morning I ran over to a local lake that roosts 200-300 local Canada geese. They left in groups of 20-30 giving me quite a few chances. Here's a few that I thought were decent.

By they way, these were taken with a 400D and a 100-400mm L IS.

4 - This one ticks me off every time I look at it. Just a few more inches forward and it could have turned out to be a really nice image.

I think it's mostly the lens, but thanks for the kind words.

Nice shots! The last of our Canadas left last week.

Nice shots. Our backwaters are now frozen, with idiots, ooops, I mean ice fishermen walking out on it.
