everyday birds

[DoctorIt]

so with all you birdbrains posting your exotics (at least to those of us who don't live on frickin wildlife preserves), its time the normal everday birds got a photo as well.

Here we have your run of the mill fat*ss domestic goose...

Hey, who you callin' fat!

Then we move along to another local water hole, where we find those damn Canadian tourists crapping all over our campus lawn. Did they all grow up on a farm or are they just all old and incontinent? I mean, when I visit Niagara, I don't just pee in the thing! Talk about bad manners. Then they have the nerve to corner our local dumpster ducks. Go back to Canadia I say!!!

I really dug that second shot too. I wish it was with a different lens as I don't much care for the bokeh from that 24-85, but it was just one of those neat compositions with a surprise. I totally didn't notice the "love"birds in the background until I was processing.

Florida in February? I'm IN!
