Scratch that Itch
(Edited)
Ever wonder how a Canadian Goose may scratch their itch? This it what it may look like. It does in fact look like a difficult maneuver. Lol. A few more goose photos from my Canadian Goose camera roll to show you today. Ever seen these fellas flying overhead? In that distinct V shape right. Apparently there is a scientific reason for it. To help reduce wind resistance, the bird behind flies slightly above the bird in front. So the first bird in the V is the lowest, and the ones at the back are the highest. This also assists in overall coordination of the entire “team” of geese. Interesting isn’t it?

Indeed!
This close up view of geese makes it more beautiful. I have seen birds flying in V shape, but never knew the scientific reason behind it. Brilliant ! Thanks for sharing, so that I can share this to someone this V secret of birds flying in air.
I just did the quick research and only just discovered that myself. Thanks for visiting.
Great shots dude!
Thanks.
You'd never know things like this till you research. Look at me thinking they probably go up in the air like, "Let's amaze this ground-creatures yet another time, shall we?"😄
It is all by design in the end. Thanks for dropping by.
A great moment captured! My humble guess is, that it can scratch even his pope, using long neck and beak xD

Their flexibility is unbelievable isn’t it!

.Hey @daveks, here is a little bit of
BEER
from @qwerrie for you. Enjoy it!Did you know that <a href='https://dcity.io/cityyou can use BEER at dCity game to buy cards to rule the world.
It's a beautiful shot. Looks like you're taking your Sony camera more than the Leica lens these days.
I the geese just has a naturally long neck with thick muscles that allow them use it to even scratch their backs
Can’t zoom in as good with that Leica, that is where the zoom lens comes in handy. Thanks.
Exactly, it's the capability of this zoom len, it's really good..
Wow! These shots are just perfect and amazing 👍
Wow bro, those geese are so cool. I never knew they flew in a V-shape to reduce wind resistance. The one in the first picture is getting a really good scratch😂😂 !LOLZ
