Migrations have begun!

Have I ever mentioned that our home sits directly below the migratory path of the Whooping Cranes, Canada Geese and Swans. Every fall we have the pleasure of witnessing thousands of fowl honking, and whooping, and trumpeting as they pass over head. The Whooping Cranes are always the first, followed by the Canada Geese, and last but not least the beautiful Swans. I find the Cranes the most amusing with their funny "whoops" and random large circles. They really are quite something to watch, and unfortunately my "point and shoot" camera doesn't do their sheer numbers any justice! All this - a sure sign of impending winter!
