Canada Geese
I felt somewhat ambivalent about posting this image, as it is so grainy due to the low light conditions in which it was shot. I confess, I was seduced by the light.
I love these birds as they are so characterful, they didn't let anything get past them, including seeing me set up my blind in the dark. the rising sun was only a promise, although not enough light to shoot, it was enough for them to see me and maintain a noisy vigil constantly honking at me trying to hide myself in that silly little camo tent.
One of the main reasons I love these geese so much is their affinity for each other and they mate for life (the main motive to stop all my hunting and swap my guns for cameras). They are communal, look after each other and generally provide a model that our society would do better to emulate. they remind me of our First nations culture, the extended family values, caring for each others welfare. Its humbling what we can learn and from where we can learn.
