\"CanadaCanada Goose calling in the snow – Nikon D300, f7.1, 1\/1600, ISO 500, +1.3 EV, Nikkor 200-400mm VR with 1.4x TC at 400mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

There is a nice fluffy layer of snow on the ground here in the Salt Lake Valley this morning and it is still coming down!<\/p>\n

I think I am as excited as this Canada Goose calling in the snow that I photographed in February of 2013 along the causeway to Antelope Island State Park<\/span><\/a>. Okay, so the goose wasn’t excited by the snow, he was excited because his mate was nearby.<\/p>\n

Me? I am excited about the snow. I was so excited I woke up briefly at 1:43 am just to look out the window to see if there was snow. I’m excited about the images I might be able to create with snow on the ground of birds and animals as soon as I can get out into the field.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
