Nice view. I live on the other side of the river from you and see almost the same view when I'm out early duck hunting.

Nice shot. Is it Canada Geese or Canadian Geese?

Thanks. According to my bird books it's Canada Geese. Seems awkward from a grammar perspective to be honest.

Thanks - you are in the Scapoose area? I am shooting from Felida.

I'm sure you are probably right but I have heard it the other way for so long it is confusing.

Same here - until one day someone corrected me in a post and I looked it up. Still sounds wrong to me too.

Nice shot!

I used to have a house on Livingston Mountain north of Camas with very nearly this same view. In recent months so many friends there had to evacuate for the Larch Mtn fire, but were fortunate to have the winds shift and missed being at the center of a disaster.

Thanks - Livingston Mountain would have a much better view than I have. I am at the far NW corner of Vancouver and have to use the 7x lens on my Mavic 3 for views like this.

I live in Hillsboro but see the sunrise view when I'm at hunting on Sauvie Island. It never gets boring.

And, btw, the proper pronunciation is Canada Geese.

Canada Geese is correct. Of course if they are really from Canada (I live close to the border) then they are Canadian Canada Geese.
