Took these while with my friend this weekend. These bird flew over as soon as I got out of the car. Barely enough time to pull my camera out.

I like the way that tree looks. A eucalyptus tree maybe? Not to sure.

Where in the world are you? In North America, we rarely see geese flying in formation except during migration. The tree has the look of a eucalyptus, and the palms would argue for at least a semitropical region.

Cool looking tree you got here. Also, I'm not convinced that these are geese as the necks are not long and thin. They look more like White Pelicans which also fly in V-formation (and are also found in regions with palm trees). Maybe speedy_2 can remember what was seen?
