the gathering

In a nutshell, if you don't like the look or sound of geese you should never, ever live on a lake.

Thankfully we don't fit into that category so we are safe to continue to live on our lovely, loud lake.  Every evening at dusk the geese do a ritual of flying above our houses in large groups before they land and settle into the lake for the night.  During the night, with my window open, I can still here them in the distance, it's a reminder to me that they are still here.  Before long they will make their amazing journey south where we will no longer see or here from them until spring breaks.  I made this video for the B-meister who is deeply enamored with our feathered friends.  He will miss watching them from the yard and hearing their delightful and excessive honking.  Admittedly, I think I'm going to miss them too!
