Hanging at the local lake...

Love the ppl shots, Frank

esp the kid on the bike. He's so full of excitement! And, the goose in flight shot is really good too. How did you get a focus lock on it?

 

Nice interaction on the first three images. Good color saturation on all, and well taken bird photo's. The forward swept wings on the Canadian Goose is really neat Frank.

 

I posted this on the "other place", so to save typing I'll copy and paste it here as well.  

Nicely done Frank, great shots, particularly the first and last ones.


I think you'll find that your black duck is one of the many "Domestic Mallards" - essentially escaped domestic ducks crossed with Mallards. They come in all varieties and colors.

And as far as the Canada Goose goes, an (possibly) interesting (well it is to me) aside is that the species was just very recently (last year?) split in two. The larger goose is the Canada Goose while a smaller variety is the Cackling Goose - I'm 99.9% sure yours are Canade Geese. Okay, okay, so it's not that interesting.

Still a nice flight shot and as I said above, that first shot is really vibrant and lively.
