Canadian Goose Takes a Swim

Again noticing that someone was referred to the Colvin Run Habitat blog by a Google search of 'goose', I thought that I would post a few more photos of geese.
Throughout ponds and lakes in Northern Virginia, wild Canadian geese are nearly as plentiful as deer are in the Habitat.
Geese are observed flying in their classic V-formation over the Habitat several times a week, but they never land.
Most time, these geese allow you to get rather close. When you get too close, they simply walk into the water. Or, if they are having a bad day, they will chase you away.
Regardless, they provide a easy target for novice wildlife photographers.
