Canada Geese
Where: Lynchburg, VA • Small pond along road side at Northwind Stables on Coffee Road
Equipment: Canon EOS D20 with 100-400mm Zoom L Series Lens with Image Stabilizer • Handheld
Exposure: Shutter Speed = 1/400 • Aperture = f 7.1 • Exposure Mode = Aperture Priority • Lens (Focal) Length = 360 mm • ISO = 100 • Aprox. Distance = ~25 Feet • Date Shot: 06-19-06
Notes: I happened along two families of geese on a small farm pond, one with nearly full grown goslings and the other pair with downy chicks. As the adult would feed, the youngsters would sneak up to them and playfully grab the pond grass that they had pulled off the pond bottom to eat.
