At first, I thought it was going to be another peaceful, quiet walk without much to see. But as I hit the 4th lake, all that changed. There were gaggles of geese and teams or flocks or rafts of ducks just swimming about, enjoying life out on the lakes.
There were tons of Canadian Gees and a few snow geese as well.
The Snow Geese really stand apart from the Canadians. There is no way they will ever truly blend in and not be seen.
There were also plenty of ducks out and about as well. There were Mallards,
Hooded Mergansers,
and a couple of new ducks on the lakes too. One was a Common Merganser. He was shy.
And the other one was a Common Goldeneye.
I have seen so many new birds, ducks and geese lately. I love it. We definitely have a wide variety of life here on our lakes. There is always something new to see and new friends to make. 🙂
Those are great pics Jeanne! We get lots of snow geese flying overhead heading south in the fall, but they don’t stop around here. I keep hoping to get a picture of one. Have a great weekend!

Thank you. You too. We have lived here for 14 years, and this is this first year I’ve seen the snow geese.

Thank you. We have a big house, on a decent plot of land, but our backyard backs up to what we call an open space. The whole entire open space behind us stretches out for miles.
