\"CanadaCanada Goose – Nikon D200, f6.3, 1\/1000, ISO 400, +0.3 EV, Nikkor 200-400mm VR with 1.4x TC at 400mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Canada Geese (Branta canadensis<\/em>) are abundant in my area of northern Utah. I often try not to overlook taking images of them simply because of that. They are beautiful birds despite their sometimes cranky nature during the breeding season.<\/p>\n

When I lived overseas as a child, and as a young woman, I missed seeing these large geese. I missed their calls, their flight formations, and seeing them waddle around.<\/p>\n

I photographed this Canada Goose as it paddled past me on Glover’s Pond at Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area in northern Utah two years ago.<\/p>\n

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