I hope your New Year's Eve was wonderful and that the new year is off to a relaxing start. We went to a wine dinner last night and then had my sister and her husband over to play cards and welcome in the year. It was a relaxing, enjoyable evening.
This morning, we looked out the kitchen window and this was our sight. Excuse these poor pictures, I had to get them in a hurry (like they would have been better if I'd had time! Uh, no!)
In every direction we looked, there were Canadian geese flying in. It was a geese gathering spot! At one time, we estimated about 300 geese. Then...
This picture is really blurry (taken with my iphone zoom, through a window), but we notice a strong stirring among the geese. Then...
Oh, no, why are they leaving en mass?
Then we noticed someone walking toward them. Bummer! We enjoyed the show mother nature provided first thing in the new year!
Welcome to 2013. May the new year hold more joy than you could ever imagine.
Your post made me smile! I can imagine how beautiful it looked!!!
