Crop the photo
When starting to optimize an image this big for a Web page, there are lot of places you can start. In this case, the image has a lot of extra water included in the shot. It was there because the photographer wanted to get the full reflection of the goose, but is unecessary for the composition of the shot.
I used Photoshop to crop the image to a smaller size.
