I have such warm and fuzzies for the branta canadensis. Even after one rushed me and bit my leg today for no damn reason. I just thought "Yep, we're exactly like that as a nation. We're kinda awkwardly cute and in no way majestic, but we'll sneakily infiltrate your silly borders, poop on everything and if you piss us off we'll make a lot of noise and impotently bite you. Oh Canada."

I hear you.  If you cross the border and threaten national security there will be retaliation.

In the form of poops. and honking. As for the picture, it is beautiful. Puts me in mind of Robert Bateman, in the reverence for nature and its godly details vein.

I really like the way that the goose's feathers mesh with the grass behind them.  Yet the patterns are very different between the two. 

Man you have an excellent eye and one mega quality camera for such detail.
