Mital bhai, this is lovely. Like the placement of the bird in the frame, the lovely bg, the soft light and especially the flight pose.

Excellent! Agree this is beautiful.

Yes, quite an attractive image. I love the soft colours of the BG, and good pose (and wing positions) from the goose.

Mital, this is terrific. Perfect bird angle and BG bokeh is super sweet.

Very nice wing position and super BG. Well done Mital! :)

I agree - nice angle, wing position, bg, and expression on the bird. I'm interested in this species at the moment as an apparently wild Greylag has shown up at a spot just 2 hours drive from my home here in Nova Scotia, Canada over the last 2 weeks. Believed to be just a 3rd record for N.America and 1st for Canada apart from one that landed on an offshore oil rig, it has now been seen and photographed by many birders, including some of the "big name twitchers" from far and wide in N.America, and all the local "keeners". None of the photos I obtained would be good enough for BPN, although I might post one on the Avian Identification and Behavior forum out of interest.
