The love making of birds is something to behold. These two geese tangled up before the love train began last spring on Turtle Creek. After the event the female seemed to work on her female section as if to clean up or further complete the process.

Fine catch, Rick, with the two birds filling the frame well and lots of action showing in the water. I also like the addition to the story from the bits of wing and tail that are clearly underwater. This is a fine catch on the action as presented, but as I view the larger version, I wonder if some dodging in the head and neck areas would put a bit more attention there.

Rick, it would be great to know the specs on this shot, i.e. ISO, Speed, aperture, etc. Great focus for an incredibly action packed shot.
