I went back to the park, and after some hunting, found the flock of 
Canada Honkers.  In their midst, once again, were the pair Bar Headed Geese.

Locally, they have turned into significant celebrities, with regional 
TV coverage, and folks coming from hundreds of miles around to see 
them.  The "experts" tell us that they are not likely  zoo escapees. 
It's more likely that they are simply way off course!  (How they got 
from China to here, is beyond me!)

I don't know how long they'll stay, but I'll keep working with them 
as long as they do.

I won't bore everyone with large numbers of photos... for other than 
some birders  among us, I expect few really care.

However, I did get one shot, today, worth sharing.  Sadly, although 
the eye is tack sharp, it appears a bit muddy due to some 
out-of-focus grass between myself and the goose.

The Goose-de-jour can be seen at:

where it itches")

Comments, good or bad, appreciated, as always.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers!


PS:  For those who missed the earlier posts, we have a pair of Bar 
Headed Geese here in Logan Lake.  They're native to Central Asia, 
normally wintering in India & Burma.
