Description
Branta canadensis), also referred to as the Canadian Goose[1], belongs to the Branta genus of geese, which contains species with largely black plumage, distinguishing them from the grey species of the Anser genus.
I took these in Las Vegas 2 weeks ago and they were very friendly toward humans probably from being fed a lot.I thought this one was being a ham about posing for me
I went to Arkansas and Oklahoma yesterday for a drive through Talemina scenic drive and there was heavy fog on top, but I was still able to get many excellent views of Autumn leaf colors
thanks for viewing and any comments

excellent!!!
Great collage excellent captur!!!!!!!!!
These fellows look very familiar-- in fact, as I write this, I can see a gaggle of them on the rivers edge from my studio window. They had a rather raucous party last night, and kept me up till nearly dawn. I wish I'd been invited. Excellent photos, Richard, I look forward to the many different worlds you submit!!!
Super shot of the goose Richard, and we had some that were friendly because we fed them. ( that is until you turned your back and the nipping would start ) LOL Can't wait to see the new pics you mentioned taking on your trip. This really is my fav time of year.
Outstanding work!!
Excellent capture!
Excellent capture Richard, and you got quite close to him as well excellent great shot.

Beautiful goose !!! great capture

Excellent collage from the beautiful goose's!!!
Fantastic closeup shots! So crisp and clear!
Awesome portraits!!! Great colage!!! I thought they are called ham - because they make ham out of them;)! We have them here at the veterinary faculty - but they are free - just come to swim and eat in our inner pond:)). Make a lot of noise and a lot of ... droppings, but generally I enjoy their presence because otherwise it's dull here:))! And I'm sick of all the stupid ducks anyway:))! Your shots are magnificent as always and the focusing is brilliant! Greetings:))
