    Bar Headed Geese

    I took this image of these Bar Headed geese on a recent visit to Bhigwan which is a wetland in the state of Maharashtra, India. These geese are have been recorded as having flown at heights of upto 7000 metres ( approx. 23,000 feet). Amazing birds!

    C&C welcome.

    Nicely exposed, birds seem to realize when you are paying special attention to them and have a way of spoiling the shot with their indifference to your intentions.

    Possibly, all the action is at ground level which leaves a large area of blank and rather noisy grey sky?

    Would a crop of the right side, and the loss of one bird plus a similar amount from the sky produce a tighter and more concentrated composition?

    I like it, Ashish...I've not seen this kind of birds before. It will be a good opportunity to do a BIF of them...butt shot or not...
