+David Mathre ; my goodness you do get around to interesting places. This is a wonderful image.
+John Roach I do try to mix things up. Moma goose, who is a completely different color — dark brown was teaching her brood of goslings to drink fresh water from a small stream of melt water on the beach going into the ocean. Papa was making sure I didn't get too close.
