    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    I have never seen Canadian Geese resting like this with it's wings slightly spread

    No neither have I Babs. Worth asking questions in the right quarters about this unusual behaviour.

    I would say the 'young under the wing' theory is about right here Babs. It did cross my mind when I looked at this image yesterday. Look no further I would suggest on this unless someone can come up with a more convincing suggestion/answer.
