Headed south 1 (Branta hutchinsii)

Cacklers are rather small geese, so they're not so dependent on each others' wind drag, therefore they don't always bother to fly in neat Vs ...

That's a lovely group you've got there Ann. They look rather neat guys these.

I really don't know how I'd tell the difference between these and the Canadas, but I suppose I'd get there eventually LOL.
 
Beautiful capture of these geese... Always a pleasure to see birds in good numbers!!! TFS Doc!!
 
feel like flying away with them, Ann!! I'm sitting in the airport, flying to Sweden for a 10 days business trip, hope I will be able to do some birding over the weekend, even if the weather forecast doesn't look too good. many thanks for sharing!!
