A Gaggle Of Geese

Nothing is more beautiful than geese flying over a river. 

While on vacation in Wisconsin, we stopped at the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary in Green Bay.

The day was warmer and a bit foggy with snow flurries.....but you wouldn't know it with all the geese around.

All you have to do is listen and you'll hear them squack somewhere nearby.  They live all over Wisconsin.

As they take off, they will fly en masse semi "V" formations.

These shots are iconic of a fall or winter in Wisconsin.  The above shot is my favorite.  Take a closer look and you'll notice all the waterfowl in the background on the river and along the shoreline.

Some people bring bread and corn to feed the ducks or geese.  If you do this, just remember that geese have a nasty bite!  And some of them can be quite aggressive:)

Also watch where you step....

as their "droppings" are hard to get off your shoes......

But there is no denying that these are incredibly beautiful creatures.....

.....just watch your head:)
