Snow Geese Landing

Ice Geese

 

 

Here's another picture of a snow goose resting on the ice for Marian. For a few days, the geese would find a small unfrozen area to swim in, but the lake is now completely frozen over.

The geese, or at least the photographers, are thinking about warmer climates.

Snow Goose on Lake Nelson

 

We had a bit of a surprise this morning. At first glance, we assumed this was just a seagull. Mike noticed, however, that is was paddling along more like the geese than bobbing like a seagull, so he got the binoculars out and declared "we have something new here." This is our first sighting of a Snow Goose here amongst the Canada Geese. We wonder what tomorrow will bring.
