This one would be great with some action or drama (e.g., flapping wings, communication between the geese), which I realize is easier said than done, having taken at least a hundred pix of Canadian geese myself and usually missing the perfect action moment. Keep trying! I haven't seen the other pix (your title is 'more geese') yet.

It's got the classic rules of composition but there is really nothing exciting about it. It's a photo of "geese walking". I have to agree with pweb, flapping wings or signs of aggression between the geese would have made it much more interesting. The tree shadow in the middle doesn't help either.

The other geese are posted under the title: follow the leader. No "action" there either though. This was my first attempt at any type of wildlife. I didn't even know what they were (except some kind of bird).

Not bad at all for a first attempt. I don't mean to sound overly harsh in my critiques but I always critique in based against an optimal scenario and can't really take a strangers experience level into account.
