Heading South

Having taken Monday off I went for a walk in the Stoney Swamp area and stopped off along the trail at a pond. This pond is remarkable for the area in that it contains several heron nests. I thought it might be a good spot to check out migrating geese and I was not disapointed. About a minute after I got there, several hundred canada geese flew in from the east side of the pond and landed in the middle while honking as loud as they could. For the next ten minutes groups of stragglers came along and circled around and landed too. Quite an awesome sight (and sound) and not something you see very often.
