Thank you, Hilary for your weekly treasures
What an absolutely superb photo of the goose. They are just incredibly gorgeous, even sitting on the water doing nothing.
Great POTWs, and I'll go check them out. Thanks, as always!
Its eyes and the droplets on its white skin are interesting and also the ripples in the water...
but its head is bit cropped ??
Nice shot
Good choice of blogs
majestic goose....congrats everyone...will pop back in here in a bit to check you out...and thank you hilary!
Love that goose portrait. So close-up and personal. Thanks for the POTW again and congrats to all the winners.
stunning pic of the goose, eh?
Cannot wait to go visit them! Congrats to everyone;)
I'm not so such that goose was trusting you!
Amazing photo!
No matter when you took it, that is the most beautiful picture! Thanks for sharing it.
That's a very sharp photo. Nice.
I love when I've visited some of your picks. And as much as goose are obnoxious, I admit that they're lovely creatures.
The goose is magnificent Hilary, and so are your choices, as usual. I've already gone and visited but want to thank you for taking the time and energy to gather these.
There were some great laughs here, as well as some wonderful photos. Thanks for doing this, Hilary. I have posted Hippo's message (and photo) on my bulletin board ;)
That is a beautiful Canada Goose, very very well taken.
What great detail on that goose, Hilary.
That goose is gorgeous!
Thank you so much for POTW! I promise to be good and not mess up your workspace now.....
Loving all of your pics, and am altogether humbled by you choosing one of my posts once again...
As always, a whole bunch of good reading for me to catch up on today! Thanks, Hilary!
I am glad you posted this picture.It is a stunning portrait of the Canada Goose.
oh, Hilary, thank you .
I've been on another planet this week I swear.
That gorgeous photo of the ordinary but exquisite goose is a good reminder to be grateful for the taken for granted you know?
The goose photo is stunning! They are such beautiful creatures.
Thanks, as usual, for the links to the POTWs. Good stuff!
Good choices this week, I liked the brides and the last one best.
Beautiful goose, and stunning picks. Thanks.
I stopped yesterday to watch some geese at an office park complex and I thought of you :)
what a fabulous conincidence
thanks for the mention
you're so good to me
Hilary, I appreciate the energy and time you put into directing us to great posts. And your Post of the Week images are delightful.
But that goose photo should be Photo of the Week.
That's about 500 times closer than I've ever captured a goose - magnificent!
I've already visited several of your choices this week; great list!
Ducks and geese, squirrels and raccoons -- these make me think of you! :)
Always a joy to see what you find on your weekly ventures ♥
I'd like to nominate Red Pine Mountain again - her post on an amorous turkey this week is hilarious!

I love the droplets of water on the feathers. Very effective.

That's another winner! Do you name them? :)
Congrats to the winners.
Ah, isn't that a cutie! Great photo.
Happy Week Hilary!
Hugs, G
Thank you so much! Since I'm a new blogger with a small blog, I'm very touched and flattered.
Your readers are so nice and left such kind comments.
You made my week!
I so miss the days I had time to read all of these!
Yay ... can't wait to visit these! That shot is incredible ... right down to the water droplets.
What a nice clear photo of that goose! Will check out your posts of the week.
Oh that duck looks great, even if this cat might do in it's fate.
Yeah cats eat ducks, I know that sucks.
I may stick to mice, as I can eat them twice.
Oh it was a goose? Boy do I feel like a moose.
A cat that's a moose, now that's quite loose.
Wow you have lots of links, giving lots of different winks.
I'll have to take a look and maybe write a book.
Yeah that take to long and I'd do it so wrong.
As I'd rhyme all the way through and for some that just wouldn't do.
So now I go and hope for no more friggin snow!
You must have a 10 gazillion mm zoom to get that close.
Oh, I've been wishing everyone Happy Presidents Pets Day - the day after Presidents Day, as I like to call it. In the US, we love our presidents..... pets. See my blog if you’re in the mood for a good ol' irreverent howl.
Beautiful pic but geese scare the heebie jeebies out of me! I remember them chasing and biting us when we visited them at our local park! They weren't as beautiful as that one however.
These are great! I sure do love your photo. I saw two of these guys on an interstate median today. My heart was in my throat, but it was good to see our old friends back.
Ah, you've been very busy, and very good at it, too!
Wonderful goose photo!
And thank you so much for the BPOTW award... such a lovely surprise after a hectic day's work.
Oh my gosh, your goose photo is so good. I wouldn't have blinked if you'd told me it was taken by a seasoned professional!
That is a wonderful close-up.....and thank you for all the good posts to read!
Wonderful as always Hilary.
Welcome to Anyes and to Pat (who appears to speak only in rhyme) who both commented for the first time. I'm glad you joined in.
Thank you all very much for your kind and supportive comments - both to me and to the POTW bloggers. You're the nicest visitors on the planet!
Now THAT is a photo of a goose! I love the bill ~ leathery like texture and so smooth. Beady eye, beads on feathers, just so. Canada Geese cause so much frustration with their habits, yet they are such beauties. I've been checking through the links and enjoying the process. Thanks :)
Goosed? You have such a way with words. I like your sense of humor. Do you see the big smile on this goose? I think the goose likes the attention.
Your recommendations are always a joy to read. Thanks for sharing these posts with us.
I'm behind on my blog hops as usual, but I have read the one by Lady Fi, and know it is well-deserving of the POTW. Gorgeous! Thanks for the list and what a gorgeous shot of the goose!
Wow...It's as though you could touch the water droplets on that goose and you'd actually get wet!
I'm off to read POTW's. Today is a catching up day for me, I hope.
that goose photo is wonderful, so intimate.
Magic all around!
