I yield to pedestrians.

Away from predators.

Thirty feet off the ground, this pair of Canada Geese are well away from ground-based predators.

Compressed.

For the past three weeks, temperatures have been mostly mildly below freezing to well below. The St. Clair River has largely frozen over so open water is limited. As a result, overwintering waterfowl been compressed into small spaces. I saw in this small open water area Mute Swan, Tundra Swan, Canada Goose, Redhead, Bufflehead, and possibly another species.

Stood guard.

This Canada Goose stood guard while the flock grazed.

Wary

This pair of wary Canada Goose allowed me to slowly approach within less than 10 meters.
