Description
Mikey went to a birthday party yesterday that had a petting zoo come out to where they were and this guy(gal?) was one of the critters there.
Don't know a thing about geese, but I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to look like that. But maybe there's a breed/species that does...*shrug*
Anyway...thought it looked like an interesting capture, so here it is.
Thanks for the comments on Adelaide.

perfect shot
Beautiful !!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS ROBY
I think she's had a rough life ;) Great shot!
Oh man... looks like this one got pet a little too often and a little too roughly. Great exposure on this, the whites still have all their detail- no blow outs to pure 100% and the grass detail in the shadows is still visible- really an excellent capture!!
excellent photo... poor animal... :)
Beautiful capture John..lovely work!!
This is top class photography John, I'm just not sure that poor bird has been treated too well. Steve :o)
lol lol. This is absolute excellent shot. Brilliant:-)hugs sessan
Maybe its the heat? Looks like he's about to wilt! LOL! Great shot!
awwwww, I guess all of us have seen better days now and then and may be this is just one of this goose's 'off days', but its a nice thoughtful shot and I bet he was just putting a 'show' on, so he got left lone lol!
Looks like someone plugged her already for Christmas and decided than to glue the feathers back on!!!LOL This really a rare photo!! I can't thing about a bread of geese that looks like this!!LOL Thanks for sharing!!! HUgs Ute
Excellent capture John!!
Aw the poor dear, maybe he was the party favor! lol
Maybe she's having a bad hair (feather) day. I got those too, only not this bad :P Nice shot John Hugs Cindy
Lol poor thing he she is fantastic superb capture hugs lou x
Quite a fine image. Who knows about geese..not me.
Well done.
I think she need to go to the beauty salon. Interesting capture. Aloha
It is a wonderful shot, but that pooor baby. She looks like my birds do when they're molting.
I was wondering if she's molting. I hope that was all there was to it. Either that, or she was in a speeding car with the top down, and got ruffled feathers. Excellent capture.
I think this is a different sort of fancy goose. We have thousands of Canadian Geese here in Michigan, and their feathers are completely different. Great shot!
Are you sure there wasn't a spiked punch bowl at the party? Great photo!
Excellent photo, well done!
Superbe capture, excellente photo!!!
LOL John What a great shot. He looks like a old goose to me. Or maybe a cat fight? LOL
A beautiful bird portrait! She maybe saw better days but she looks still very clean! Lovely taken!!!
Sweet one erland
Aw, shucks! Maybe it was just shedding its feathers. I'm sure he or she will feel better tomorrow! :)
Excellent photo my friend John.....!!! Great detail in the feathers.....:!!!
Great shot!!!
