We do live on a dairy farm, but right about now we have a different sort of animal also on the farm. Normally in my backyard I look into the eyes of a heifer who is guiltily eating my rose bushes and eyeing my yard. Yes, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, even for a cow.
But now the cows are inside for the winter and I have a different view out my kitchen window.
What are you looking at, you ask?
Let me get a bit closer...
Still not sure?
Yep...the farm is a stop-over for geese on their way south. Lots of geese.
And when they fly, it's pretty magnificent to watch.
As I walked to the barnyard Saturday morning they were flying around and I did a quick estimate count. We're closing in on 1,000.
Minus a few...as we also have a half-dozen hunters in our backyard too. We are also quite popular with that crew, if you can imagine.
Love the pics....now if you could just shoo those hunters away...
