I’m sorry you lost most of your limbs. Next time, can I recommend a nice 300mm telephoto?
i am afraid i have no use for a 300mm with my arms now missing
You’re getting some serious stink-eye.
it did get a bit more explicit
I gave the pic an upvote, but wonder if it was worth the risk of being annihilated to get the shot.
i was sitting, watching my son play with sand, but the chick kept walking toward me, the parents were like “move out of the way, my son wants to follow this path,” which i did, but not without taking few pics first.
That’s close enough for normal geese, let along mother goose with babies nearby.
I remember them being friendly as a kid. There was one that I called Noodleneck that loved head scratches that would run up to me and try to put his head in my hand. Now I sit on the bench at the top of the hill in my bike commute and Deathbeak XVII keeps coming up from behind the bench to nip at my butt. Its a weird spot to see a goose too but he’s there at least once a week.

Of course he does. Your name is Grass. That’s what they eat.
Photographer leaving the scene:
Da widdle face!
And in your “more explicit” shot, the way the baby is just obliviously safe to explore the whole world at its own little pace.
Obviously you also got good detail on the adult but it’s the baby who makes these shots special.
