Snow Geese, Fir Island, and Mount Baker

Here is Arizona, in the winter we head out to Whitewater Draw to see and photograph 30-40,000 Sandhill Cranes. Mixed among them are several hundred Snow and Ross Geese. But in Western Washington you head out to Fir Island where 10-20,000 Snow Geese winter.

Although I set up my camera to get the full affect of the 12,000+ foot Mount Baker in the background, the five Snow Geese flying in front of each peak made this a very special (and Award Winning photo):
