"A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked. " Anais Nin

 

 

 

 

Goose in the Reed

This goose was invisible in the reed until it started quacking loudly. This usually is the announcement of flying away, so I was prepared that this fellow would be in sight soon. Once visisble, i took a few shots. The wing position here was the nicest of them all, and it shows the effort of this animal to take off vertically without a "runway".
