Here are a couple or three shots of geese on my grandparents farm in upstate New York. They live on a farm and live off the land and they had originally bought the geese to raise and eat, but they got attatched and so the geese have been living there for about 15 years. Apparently they can live to be 80 years old!

Thanks Harry, yeah that 2x teleconverter really helps to get nice and close. I got the butt shot when I tried to get too close and they retreated.

Actually, I'm a Nikon guy, the lens is a 70-200mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Zooma calafragalistic maximus with the 2x teleconverter, I think my wife is starting to get jealous of our relationship :rofl :rofl :rofl
