September Has Been Magnificent


September has been magnificent on the Basin


The Rusty Pups and I 
wanted to check out an old haunt
The Queen Ann Dyke which we avoid in tic season!
As you can see the grass has been cut
and gathered in bales....


....some neatly piled on farmers' trailers.


We know it's fall
'cos the osprey have left
and the geese are practising


Some flights are still a tiny bit chaotic


but they will practice up and down the Basin
honking away
until they get it just right.

  3. The geese have a long flight ahead of them when they get it right...!

  4. Isn't it fun to watch the geese flight lessons? We can always tell when it's happening on the river because there's a huge amount of honking encouragement going on and then they take wing and wheel about and honk their way back in again. It actually sounds as though a few of the 'landers' are rather hysterical about it. So funny.
