    Egyptian geese never cease to produce good action shots, as they are always busy terrorising other ducks and geese. In this, he was flying towards us, and decided to bank away at the last moment. At this birding spot, these geese and other species are totally wild. Austin Roberts, Pretoria. Extended the canvas on the left slightly.

    Cool landing pose, sharpness and eye contact. If the underside of the near wing were entirely visible, it would have put it over the top for me.
