 I found these geese at a beautiful pond; very unexpected for the urban area it is in. They rule the roost!!! Does anyone know what kind of geese these are? I can't find them in my bird books.

Yep. That's a gaggle. Nice composition, tones and framing.

cute title. Too bad the road is in the background. with the grass and maybe some trees I think this would work well. Just the plain grass is a little too...well plain frankly. But the road is definitely not the thing to break up the monotony

that's a fun title! I have never seen creatures with heads/beaks quite like these. Nice and bright too.

Nice gaggle. If you'd moved round to the left a bit, you could have left out the path, which spoils the shot a bit.

What a cute bunch of birds! I love the way they're all oriented in the same direction. What are they looking at? Very sweet. I wish you had not chopped off the legs, though.

Good title, well-taken shot. Could _maybe_ do with being a little bigger, but this hasn't affected my score like it might in a smaller pic. Good idea.

Sharp and bright colors. The road sort of ruins the picture for me though... needs to be all green, perhaps with some sky even.

Toulouse geese, very smart. I used to have some. The male loved me, hated my husband. Neat shot, you caught their forever alert eye!! Nice color.

Nice picture. To bad you couldn't have gotten them closer to the middle of the grass so you wouldn't have gotten the concrete in there.
