Webster Pond

A popular fishing and waterfowl pond south of Syracuse, New York. Thousands of ducks and geese which are feed by the public year round. ; It was a beautiful January day to be out and about.


Ducks fill the sky over Webster Pond.

I will probably crop this one later. ; The old Nikon 80-400VR has been panned for not being fast enough. ; Well, it takes practice but it can capture BIF (birds in flight).


Sisters feeding a Canada goose. ; I asked and received permission from their father to photograph the girls. I'm getting better at asking.

 

Nice shots Scott. ; Looks like it was a beautiful day. ; We've had nothing but rain and temps in the 30's today -- very gray and unpleasant for mid-winter. ; I'm hoping to get some wet street scene shots tonight downtown.

Thanks, guys! ; The weather gave us a break this weekend. ; Should be back in to cold and snow by mid-week. ; Here's some more from Webster's.

This will give you an idea how many ducks and geese hang out there.


A little selective focus.


More Birds in Flight shots...

 

Nice shots Scott! Looks like a great place to practice BIF shots.

 

Great shots. ; I especially love the ducks in flight. ; Thanks for sharing.

 

Very nice.

 

Thanks everyone! ; Webster Pond certainly helped the mid-winter blues.

 

Why think you, Craig. ; He is a handsome fellow at that.

 

Wow! ; These are great Scott!!!!

 

Nice work Scott! ; I really like the Mallard shots. ; The wingtip blur is especially nice.
