Happy Wednesday!

I have four images for you today.  This first one is more of a landscape image (with a goose in it) than a wildlife image.  I actually shot this at about 170 mm because I liked the way it looked in the view finder.  I think there are only so many ways you can show a goose but I’ve never presented one in this manner before.

About the only bird I feed at home is the Gold Finch so I can photograph them anytime I want.  But they are usually hanging around a metal feeder as we don’t have many trees in our backyard.  So when I found this little guy in the “wild” I was excited to photograph him.

I think this is a Red-Winged female blackbird.  It is likely I’m wrong but that’s what I’m going with for now.  Anyway she was nice enough to sit and pose for me so I couldn’t pass her up.

Finally a butt shot of another Gold Finch.  I was hoping to find more migratory birds at Green Island but I didn’t have much luck.  It was a worthwhile trip however so no complaints.

I only have a few more images from Green Island so hang in there.  Thanks for stopping by the blog.  Enjoy your day and be careful.
