Maybe this will be a good season for breeding. (Trying to look on the positive side.)<BR/><BR/>Diva Kitty: Do try to scare something up!<BR/><BR/>Monarch: Are you excited about Brant? Where are you? lol!<BR/><BR/>Jimmy: I'm glad for your snow - will you send some (lots!) this way, please?<BR/><BR/>Sandy: Yes, it must be. Waterfowl move south when their northern lakes and bays freeze over - if that doesn't happen - why move south for the winter? I'd love to know if people north of here are seeing larger numbers than usual.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Jayne: Glad you liked Good Planets - send me something to include!<BR/><BR/>Naturewoman: I liked it too. Interesting pose!<BR/><BR/>Liza: I love the feet stretched out!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Robin: It made me smile.

You get better zoom with your new camera than I do with my big lens. Go figure. I think to get really nice bird pics I need one of those lenses you see on the sidelines of a pro football game!<BR/><BR/>I was thinking of you when I suggested visiting with Vicki, actually. She has your kind of sense of humor. I'm sort of awe-struck by you folks who can write with humor.<BR/><BR/>John: Hi - thanks.<BR/><BR/>Cathy: I love to hear them migrating at night in the pitch dark.

You add so much joy to your blogging friends. Thank you so much, Laura.<BR/><BR/>I viewed Vicki and put her in my favorites. You know I love a good laugh and she can really deliver!

Though Canada Geese are common and even considered a nuisance in some communities they thrill me as they come in overhead calling to one another and drop into the water with splashing grace. <BR/><BR/>I will, indeed,check out your neighborhood :0)Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.com
