The Sentinel

I sat and watched a group of snow geese as they fed in the later afternoon light while this one watched me. It never took its eyes off me except for a quick nibble. Why does a flock suddenly burst into the air, for no apparent reason? Is one the designated guard that alerts the group? Just another one of nature's mysteries. Technical: Would the picture be better without the stick in the neck? Should it cloned out of the shot? What about all the dark spots in the water?  Sometimes nature isn't perfect.
