Hi Mary and Jeni, This is my first spring at the farm. I am so excited to be near a major stop for migrating waterbirds. Well it is major for me anyway. There are much larger gathering places but this one is just about 1/2 mile from our farm.

| The migrating Snow Geese, Canada Geese, Mallards and some Swans on 3/26/2016 |

This is the view of the slough from my quilt room window. (My window faces the South.)
Just a sliver of water is seen from there.
But.... |
 |
This is the view from my neighbors yard. That is not snow out there. It is mainly
Snow Geese and other water birds! |
 |
| Just a few of them. |
 |
| Or maybe more than a few. |
 |
| And more are arriving. |
 |
| As far as our eyes could focus we could see skeins of geese flying. It was amazing. |
 |
The neighbors view at Sunset. The geese go off somewhere
during the day and come back occasionally and then
at dusk to stay there overnight.
|
I LOVE it! I tried to get pictures of the geese coming in at dusk but the pictures were too dark.
Hugs,
Nancy
