I did not see the geese the first time around, so I didn't understand the title; however, the photo's central focus is the water and mist.

i would crop the top more, get rid of the blown out sky and a bit on the bottom for the what looks like a clump of mud. Maybe a little more contrast also to seperate the colors more.

6: The birds don't seem to be big enough in the frame given that I presume the title refers to them. The autumn colours in the tree overpower them as they are
