Sunset Snow Geese

 This evening after dinner I was checking the sky out to the West for clouds as I was vaguely interested in checking out the planetary alignment that was going to be visible just after sunset.  Unfortunately there was a fair bit of high level cloud but what was more interesting was the Snow Geese landing in the field opposite. Despite the extreme cold temperatures this winter we haven't had much in the way of snow so consequently the Snow Geese seem to have been around more than usual. Several times this winter I've past them in the fields in the area when I've been driving but this is the first time this winter I've seen them in the field opposite the house. I got in the car and just drove down the drive and parked in the front yard and used the car as a blind (hide for the UK reader/readers). It was warmer and much more comfortable. I took 1897 images in the 20 minutes or so I was down there. The golden light was pretty nice  but when the sun dipped below the horizon it was time to head inside.
