geese on holiday

off for winter

the country near my parents place is swarming again with all kinds of geese and ducks.

Still hard to get in the frame with my new 70-200 (darn, 200mm is really really short :( ), but the lens is perfect for making silhouettes ;)

This one was the composition that I was looking for: flying away from me, with all the wings almost in the same position. Makes you wish you could fly also.

birdie birdie

sorting out my archive and came across a few birdpics from holiday in Denmark. Considering it was one of these birds that probably took a dump on my backpack, I immediatly thought of this poem (no idea where I picked it up though :P ).

“little birdie in the sky,

took a shit in my eye.

I didn’t curse, I didn’t cry,

I only thanked God cows couldn’t fly”

Anyways: here are the pictures. I was sneaking up on them, most of the time crawling and taking a picture like every 30cm’s progress I made.

hiding

and here the birds finally saw me.
