An old image from back in 2013. Hopefully I'll get the chance this Winter to photograph GGO's again.

It might be quite challenging to take new images that could surpass this one, but we are always trying to capture more and improved photographs of birds, regardless of the species, or how many excellent images we took in the past, I believe. Regardless, good luck for this year, Malcolm!

Great details and facial expression, Malcolm, the snow makes it even better.
