They're Baaaaaack!

Run for the hills folks! Wait a cotton pickin minute...we don’t have any hills. Well, run for it anyway. We are about to be overrun again.

Yes folks, it’s that time of year again. The Canadian geese are descending upon us again in droves. Just last week I had taken my five yr. old over to a neighbors house (about 10 blocks away) and on Golden Pond, there were only about a dozen or so of these feathery critters...the long term, permanent resident sort of bird. Not three hours later when I went to pick him up, there musta been at least 500 of the “wild” ferocious, untamed, eat all your bread and toddler too Canuks.

Sweet! Just in time for Thanksgiving. Must be fab not to have to buy a turkey.

P.S. Will there be another photog adventure amongst the geese? Love to see that, yes I would.

So, instead of pretty snowy white stuff, you get another kind of "white stuff" dropped around your house. Do you remember the tons of little black birds that make a pit stop in the big trees between our house and your old house? I'm sure that's nothing compared to big geese but those little boogers leave quite a mess of "white stuff"! Have fun!

Cari- I actually haven't seen that kind of white stuff failing out of the sky yet...whew!! The only white stuff we have around right now is cotton. Acres and acres of cotton in bloom, ready to harvest.

Canadian Geese flocking down there, Canadian Geese flocking up here - I'm a'tellin ya, it's a conspiracy! They're out to take over the world! It's all part of the "New World Order". You was right to say "run for them thar hills!"
