Bean Goose is back!

[Mark Itol]

From my hard disk, that is. ;D Not much birding for me the past few weeks due to schedule, so I just had to re/process some of my older captures. Here's another shot of one of Candaba's former rockstars.

Tundra Bean Goose (Anser serrirostris), rare, accidental
Candaba, Pampanga, 10 Apr 2010

40D, 400/5.6 L, ISO 400, f/8, 1/1000 sec, manual exposure, tripod/gimbal, cropped, cloned out some twigs on the foreground

Thanks for looking. C&C welcome and appreciated.

Mark you are a naughty boy. For a while I thought I have a reason to go to Candaba. LOL I never was able to get close to the goose. You got a perfect picture of that Bean Goose. Well done & Mabuhay.

Excellent shot, Mark. I like the creamy BG in two tones, and the cracking dried mud at the foreground. If you have completely frozen his foot soaked in mud in midair, it could have been real perfect pic!
