The goose is acting like a big bully. However you did get a good photo with great detail. Color and contrast nice. Good water movement. Hope the duck was a fast swimmer.

I like this picture. That poor duck, I love the brown feathers of the goose, and the churning water. Great cropping and composition. Thanks for sharing.

Just the same thing the swans do to the geese. I really like the spread wings with every feather visible. Excellent composition and colors. Good luck in the contest.

Your title is accurate and your are right for sure - how mean is this goose - hope the poor attacked one survived without injuries -

As photographer your did a fantastic job, perfect in reaction and timing , super composition, perfect angle - handsome frame - a story as content , visible and powerful , fantastic in camera settings, contrast and lighting -

A beautiful snap shot, outstanding and unique, all the best for the contest

Great picture of the Canada Goose with the wings outstretched. Good details showing in the feathers, great movement showing in the water. Very nicely framed with the water.

This quite an unusual shot. I never thought a good would attack a duck like this even if I know these geese can be quite aggressive. It is indeed a very good stop action in this shot.

Your photo is nice and sharp and especially the wings of the goose are well defined. The white duck has however lost all details due to a blow out of the whites.

The framing is perfect, and the birds are well placed within the frame. I think this is a really well taken photo, and I wish you luck with the contest.
