Embden Goose At Alkrington Woods

0 Comments
November 15th, 2011

Many photographers don’t like the late afternoon winter sun, but the results at this time of day can be spectacular!

This Embden Goose is resident at Rhodes Lodges, adjacent to Alkrington Woods in Middleton, Greater Manchester. Known locally as Charlie, this poor bird is missing its wing feathers – but seems happy enough despite that!

The Embden goose is a breed of domestic goose, believed to have originated either in Germany or Holland. 

Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mk II w/ Canon 400mm f5.6L;    Exposure: 1/2000th sec @ f8;     ISO: 500
