Re: Few recent shots with G3 & 100-300

Thanks, glad you liked them.  These are Canada geese.  I thought it strange that they breed in South Carolina instead of Canada but I read online that some geese have crossbred with a non-migrating species, so after they've come south for the winter they just stay permanently.  Apparently they're the bane of golf courses all over Florida too 

There are 4 separate mating pairs in our neighborhood with a total of 22 goslings, and suprisingly not a single one has been lost (the families are 8 chicks, 7, 4, and 3).  We have plenty of predators around - owls, hawks, alligators, raccoons... not to mention dogs and cats.  The parents are aggressive and mean as hell, but I guess with good reason.
