Magpie Geese have returned to our area after a short absence. These took to flight showing just how long and graceful their wings are.
Magpie Goose (Anseranas semipalmata)
Found this Magpie Goose while looking for a Jacana known to always be at this lagoon. The Jacana was there but unfortunately too far away for a photo.

Thanks Mick glad you like them.
Lovely series Neil. I hope the Jacana will come closer next time.
Thanks Gwendolen
I will keep trying for the Jacana.
the flight shot is very good. the best part was the random flight patern
...wow...what a cool-looking bird. He almost seems to have a bit of a Turkey Vulture face. Love the flight photos...
Interesting looking bird, these geese. Those flight shots are just fantastic!
That's an interesting Goose species. Excellent photos!
Thanks Yen,Kelly, Bob & cynthia and MaineBirder for all your comments.
Great in flight captures Neil! I love seeing these birds that I have never even heard of. It's like birding around the world without leaving home!
Thanks Larry
