Description
My favorite cottonwood tree. Canada Geese do nest in trees, and this one did check out this site for their summer home, but finally decided to look elsewhere. Volunteers at the Refuge have seen the goslings purposely tumbling out of the nest at the right time, and somehow always arrive on the ground unharmed.
My guess is that this perch is at least 40 ft above Mother Earth.
One year a Canada Goose pair took over an abandoned eagle's nest and raised a family. The many winter storms have finally deposited the nest onto the ground, branch by branch.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS!
