As this large group of birds flew close to the current by the seaside, they would peel off one at a time doing what appeared to be a rehearsed and synchronized air ballet. It was quite remarkable to observe and I am certain it was joyous and playful for them.

Happy Holidays! FYI they are Lesser snow geese, (We have Greater along the East coast lol) I always think they look like the rippling water, if you are lucky enough to see a flock land it’s like a white tornado surrounding you!

I think we only get the Canadian honkers out here… I love to watch them flying overhead and hearing their honks. Great shot Mike! and wishing you and yours a pleasantly warm holiday.

Beautiful shot Mike! Far too much fog and rain here at the moment. Getting webbed feet. If I could grow a few feathers I’d join them and ‘flock-off’ south into the blue!

There you go again, assuming they’re at play. I have it on good authority that the aerial ballet you witnessed is not a genetic manifestation. It is well rehearsed and a lot of hard work goes into making it look so effortless. Please apologize. Not to me but to them! I can’t dance worth a ….
