Greylag Goose in flight
Quite happy with this one. These geese stay in Holland by the thousands and are not very spectacular. But in flight you see the wonderful texture in the feathers. Hope you like this.

iso 320 1/1250 sec. F5.6 Nikon 200-400 with 1.4TC full frame.

Very nice. Good sharp details in the body & a nice hint of movement in the wingtips. Top Class :toast:

Common, yes, but they are beautiful birds and you've captured it beautifully. Very complementary background.

Excellent shot - you captured a really dynamic shape in the air and the colours of the whole image are superb :toast:
