The other commenters have hit on some of the key aspects of why this shot scored so low. The water in the background is overexposed which is distracting, and the whole shot seems to be slightly out of focus. This comes across as a photo that you took quickly as the geese were wandering away, which you then cropped the best you could. I know it's hard when you're trying to get shots of animals, but I think this would have turned out better if you had gotten at a slightly lower angle (to avoid the overexposed water) and used a shallower dof to make the geese stand out against a fuzzy background. Hope this is helpful.

Light from the water made the geese under exposed.

lighting/focus seems off imo, too much feather definition lost to be a great photo, but it is a good one
