Nature Walks – Flapping Their Wings

It is the middle of winter, and here in Colorado that can mean a lot of things. One day we will have a ton of snow. The next day, most of it will be gone. Then you can have sunshine for a few days and all the snow melts, and then BAM! More snow all over again. That also means that sometimes we see a lot of critters out and about, and sometimes we don’t.

Right now, we have a lot of our Canadian Geese around our ponds. And they are busy flapping their wings. Flapping their wings, especially when in the water, has different meanings too. They could just be bathing and keeping themselves clean, or stretching out their muscles, or communicating with the other geese around, or it could be part of a mating ritual. They all have their own reasons for flapping their wings, but the other day, they were just flapping away.

Have a great day and make everyday great. Life is what you make it. Make it great. ‘Til next time.
