Well, with all of the wonderful snow goose images from the Bosque lately I will add one to the mix from the east coast. These are greater snow geese, which winter on the east coast, as opposed to the lesser form which is found in the midwest and west in winter. This shot was taken this fall at sunset as the flocks came in to roost.

Great colors. I love the combination of blurred, moving geese and still, less blurred geese.

Very nice!!

Super image. (I have something like it from Bosque. :) ) I really like the density and color, and the combination of relatively sharp birds with largely blurred ones.

I like this one. The colors are excellent as well as the combination of birds in various stages of movement.

The contrast between the BG and the silhouettes is excellent. Congrats!
