A Brandt Goose assessing the conditions out at sea on a stormy day on the pacific coast. Not sure if he was looking to fly or swim but he looked around for a minute or two then hunkered down to wait out the storm as the rain fell in sheets.
That “short story” behind the photo is what I found really lovable, and your ability to relate the main character to its environment is pretty amazing. Bravo!
Hi and thanks for the kind feedback and taking the time to give it. It is appreciated. I am glad you appreciated the little story and based upon observation it did appear to be a an accurate representation of the situation that day. Hope your day is good and have a great weekend.
And we have all had that moment with weather, wondering if we need to cancel our plans. But I’ve never seen it in a goose (and I’ve watched thousands). Great capture.
HI Jet not sure if he got left behind by the rest of the geese but he was the only goose around that day and the canceled flight stuff hits home for sure. Hope you have a great weekend.
Hi Paula, he was indeed along and perhaps a look of longing to take off and join his pals whereever they may be on this cold stormy day. Have a great weekend.

Indeed, best to just stay put that day and wait it out and I hope he was not too lonely as he was the only goose around.
