A greater snow goose landing in the evening light on a reservoir in Quebec.

Approach

Victoriaville, Québec

Early winter in Québec sees the local reservoirs, fields, and rivers almost overflow with greater snow geese. At the Beaudet Reservoir in Victoriaville, about halfway between Montreal and the capital Québec City, this snow goose brakes to splash down into some of the scarce open water available. More geese dot the background, numbering well into the thousands. By the time the winter holidays come, the reservoir will have frozen over, and most of the geese will have migrated on to their overwintering grounds. It takes a rare sunny day here to get the best shots, but when the light cooperates, there are some real winners on offer, on par with anything I could get in BC.
