Serenity Amidst Chaos

The attraction at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area this time of year is the Snow Goose migration. Folks come from far and wide to see thousands upon thousands of Snow Geese as they pass through our area on their trek north. Their visit is short, but memorable. Viewing thousands of snow geese as they take to flight en masse is a sight to behold. I have countless photos of large flocks filling the frame of my lens with wings, beaks and feathers that resemble a very difficult jigsaw puzzle. As exciting as that is, I also enjoy the more serene moments when just a few graceful geese fly across the winter landscape. Here are two favorite images from last weekend. I love using these dead trees on the far side of the lake as a background.
