Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

It's actually really there in the sense that the grass the goose is standing on is very green and reflected off their chin! :)

I wondered the same for a second when I went through the pictures at home.

Thanks. What's worse, is that I lost quite a few attempts to this problem today: white gulls and the like, against dark backgrounds. Trying to remove over-exposure just leaves a vivid green discolouration,

Huh, interesting. I wonder where the difference is coming from. You use a Canon, right? Maybe that plays a role? But surely that would be more an issue of raw data interpretation.. Do you have any examples easily on hand?

I don't think it'd be an issue of sea birds, would it? Blue seas would tint things blue and, if (over-)corrected, orange, I'd assume..

Oh, right: I'm using a nikon z6ii with a sigma 150-500 mm lens.
