Yesterday I spent a short time at Randall Park, Yakima County Washington. When I arrived there were few geese and a number of ducks, most mallards and domestic hybrids on the lawn. The pond is half or more frozen. While there a flock of about 100 Canada Geese arrived. Not all of them landed because I think they though it was crowded in the open water. I took a few flight shot.

A Canada Goose just coming out of the water to confront another pair of CAGOs that were upriver. The other pair of CAGOs took heed to his warning and flew away. Photo taken at Washougal River Greenway.

July 1, 2023 is Canada's 156th birthday!
Canada Day celebrates the anniversary of Canadian Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the British North America Act, 1867, when the three separate colonies of the United Canadas, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into a single dominion within the British Empire called Canada.
Originally called Dominion Day, the holiday was renamed in 1982, the same year that the Canadian constitution was patriated by the Canada Act, 1982, which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
Cheers!

Le 1er juillet 2023 est le 156e anniversaire du Canada!
La fête du Canada célèbre l'anniversaire de la Confédération canadienne qui a eu lieu le 1er juillet 1867, avec l'adoption de l'Acte de l'Amérique du Nord britannique, 1867, lorsque les trois colonies distinctes du Canada-Uni, de la Nouvelle-Écosse et du Nouveau-Brunswick ont été unies en un seul dominion au sein de l'Empire britannique appelé Canada.
Appelée à l'origine Fête du Dominion, la fête a été renommée en 1982, la même année que la constitution canadienne a été rapatriée par la Loi sur le Canada de 1982, qui a rompu les vestiges de la dépendance juridique du Parlement du Royaume-Uni.
Acclamations!
The Canada warbler is one of the last warblers to arrive north in spring and one of the first to leave in the fall, so not a lot of time find and photograph this stunningly beautiful warbler during the Ontario season.

Canadian geese in a field in Talsarnau.
Although Canadian geese are one of the commonest and perhaps the most easily recognisable species, they are not native to Wales. They were introduced to the UK from north America, and they are now annual residents. A good number can be seen at RSPB Conwy, and they also visit RSPB Newport Wetlands.
Document capture, great to see one !

In Arctic regions flora come to life during the short summer season. Newcomers tend to be surprised by the vibrancy and range of colors to be observed.

Reminds me of an antique car hood ornament!
Just love watching up close the Canada Geese found in pairs all over the zoo areas. Can't wait for when they find their nests and start laying eggs and raising their gosling families!
And this is the same elk of the previous photo, after I zoomed in.
Some explanation: this animal is called 'an elk' or 'a wapiti' in Canada, and it is a kind of deer (Cervus canadensis). The animal that is called 'an elk' in British English is taller and has a different type of antlers. That animal is called 'a moose' in Canadian English.
The elk in my photo is a bull as can easily be seen from its massive antlers!
What a sight, a Canada Creche of 8 adults and 26 young goslings of varying ages. A lunchtime photographing these scenes meant being late back for work but well worth it!!!!!!

Taken on a 28 hour fly in visit to Montreal. Found this in the city center whilst finishing lunch - short break. icy cold, my hands were stiff numb. The dampness in the air made it more difficult. Well got a shot or two .
This is DRI. Used two sets of exposures . 2 composites generated from 5 exposures each. Auto blending modes for each composite. Layered back (blending mode) a darker expsoure for the contrast . layer masked the 2 composites ;-)
