The rain finally stopped so I spent some time out by the pond today. I started by photographing some still wet flowers.
As I wandered around the pond, these gosling emerged from the reeds
They weren't alone. They had these two chaperones steering them all around the pond.
I caught one of the parents pulling up a plant to feed to the goslings.
There was also a wood duck with a whole lot of duckings, but she didn't cooperate (photographically) by swimming out of the reeds.
Red winged blackbirds feed on the reeds and I was able to capture this one coming in for a landing.
Oh wow! Look at the red winged blackbird! He is just really pretty! The gosling are so cute! Great pictures! Really great!
ReplyDeleteI agree with The Girl In The Mirror, those gosling are CUTE!
ReplyDeleteAnd the last shot of the blackbird in mid-flight is all types of awesome too, Dave!
