2018—Landing

The Snow Geese at Bosque del Apache are constantly taking off and landing.  Sometimes the entire flock suddenly takes to wing, sometimes it is just at few, or even a single bird flying away from the flock.  But, they always seem to return.  From where we photograph them, it never looks like there is space enough for them to land but they always find a spot to alight.  This Snow Goose checks out the corn field below to find the ideal spot to land.
