There are often hoards of greater white-fronted geese in our neighborhood this time of year, but sometimes you find just a pair of them off on their own, scheming their goosey schemes and skeptical of anyone who comes close enough to listen in.

Photo of a pair of plump, smallish brown and white geese with their backs to the camera, loitering in the tamped, driftwood-colored grass of an empty neighborhood lot. The birds' heads seem to be facing each other, showing brown heads with white faces and bright orange bills that glint in the light as they both turn to look back over their shoulders towards the camera. It's as though they've abruptly paused their conversation and are pursuing their lip, either because they've been found out gossiping or because I've been found wanting. The sun is bright and full, playing up the bright orange rubber of their legs and the smoky walnut of their wings. In soft focus in the background stand fuzzy straws of bulrush against the faded blue of a lake.
