I never tire of seeing geese in flight. Ditto on the field and Stream comment! Well captured!

So often these are photographed with all sky as background, but I like all of the trees as the backdrop. Excellent photo

I like how they are coming into the photo. This is one of photographers best tools.
The trees in the background make it more realistic. Great photo!
