Time of Year

Here we go....another Spring blog.

As I drove in the country this afternoon, I was startled by the numbers of large birds flying together. They were not in a pattern; they just flew up and then some landed.

As I neared the field where they had landed, I noticed it had been a corn field last fall. All the stalks were gone, cut to the ground, but there must have been some seeds. The birds appeared to be feasting on them.

The most impressive part of the scene was.....all the birds were WHITE!
I had thought it might be Canadian geese on their annual run to the northern climes. But this was exotic.

All of these birds were snow geese!
