Mother Goose

I have on loan, a Tamron 150-600. We drove to the bird sanctuary
to try it out mid afternoon. This family was swimming by and I rushed to capture
them before they disappeared thus the slight out of focus.
I would appreciate C&C.

What a beautiful shot.

That's really very nice Irene and mum's eye looks sharp enough to me.

Canada Geese may be commonplace (even in the UK) but this shot is far from commonplace. I particularly like the reflections of the green background.

Good one, Irene...the babies looks furry...and they are all cuties. Keep up the good work.

[Shadowman]

Nice shots Irene and the babies are so cute I like them both but I find #2 better.

[Geoff F]

Yes, I was wondering about cropping or slightly toning down the green reflection which seemed to be slightly overwhelming a very good scene.

Thank you Binnur, I appreciate your input.
Thank you Geoff, I will try toning down the reflection. I appreciate your suggestions.

Terrific, I'm glad he didn't get left behind

#2 because of the cropping gives a sense of motion, I would like to see a little less cropping top and bottom (not by much) it feels a little too squeezed. A little less hot would be interesting to compare. Very nice shot.

Thank you Barbara, you did come to mind when I was viewing these shots later.
I realized that trying to capture birds in flight / motion is not a one time endeavour.
