You’ve captured the look of flight very well Margaret. Simply done but very effective and eye catching.

Beautiful drawing Margaret!

Beautiful drawing Margaret, great feeling of freedom.

Very spontaneous and lively drawing, Margaret.

Very nice sketch Margaret, I love geese in flight.

Lovely drawing Margaret, only have Canada geese near me.

You have really captured it well Margaret, lucky you to have got such a great shot of the birds flight 😀

I love the very strategic use of lines, marks and tones, and the way you captured the flight movement of the goose. A simple subject, but tackled in a very fresh and lively way. Fabulous work!

I can almost hear the whistle of its wing beats Margaret, a lovely alive sketch. I was in the garden this morning and a small ish flock of geese (40) were flying from the Estuary. I shouted that it was too early to think about going home yet! They were probably only looking for fresh lush grass.

Lovely sketch Margaret 👍🏻

Absolutely beautiful drawing Margaret.

Thank you Tessa, Satu, Cesare, Mia and Bob :) Thank you Alan -:) This goose was at RSPB Mersehead in Dumfries & Galloway. Thank you Linda :) I have photographed at lot of geese over the years! Thank you Carolyn and Seok :) Thank you Fiona :) I hope they are not going home yet! It is usually about March before they head northwards again I think? They are always so lovely to see and hear.

Thank you Rachel and Margaret :)

Looks like he is flying into the New Year. All the best for 2019.

Happy New Year to you too Tony :)

Very good spontaneous sketching.

A lovely sense of movement.
