Canada Geese on Catoctin Creek

I saw these Canada geese engaged in some serious communication recently.  I don't know what they were saying to each other...







After listening to all that the gander had to say the female turned about...

 
She led the male to a rock...
 

Where they preened for a while...

 
Next, the gander tried to impress her by offering her different views of his head and neck...

 
 
 
After that display, they both began talking at the same time... 




 
 
I guess they got everything settled because they left together, a lot more quietly than they arrived.
