Last week I photographed three Canada Geese lifting off from Glover Pond at Farmington Bay and it brought memories from November of 2008. I was still living in Florida at the time but had just made a trip to Utah to photograph birds. The first Canada Geese I ever photographed<\/span><\/a> were taken at Glover Pond. Canada Geese were hard to find in Florida and I was just as thrilled to take photos of the geese that day as I was any of the birds I photographed on that trip.<\/p>\n

I still get a thrill out of photographing Canada Geese despite how abundant they are here in northern Utah and many other areas of the country. Why?<\/p>\n

Because they are birds.<\/p>\n

After I moved to Utah in 2009 I was delighted to frequently have these geese in my viewfinder and I still am.<\/p>\n

Anyone who has ever observed Canada Geese can look at my photos and they can hear the wings of these geese flapping and the sounds of their flight calls<\/span><\/a> as they lift off in their minds. I know I can. Canada Geese can be loud when they are taking off and I love hearing that sound.<\/p>\n

Canada Geese might be considered common, sometimes even annoying, but they are birds and I’m just as passionate about photographing them as I am any other birds. They are beautiful.<\/p>\n

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