Two Canada geese




My wife had been told that geese were back already but I took it as just a rumour. However, today while getting gas a Shoal Lake there was an unmistakable honking, not of car horns but of two Canada geese clearly visible as the flew towards the lake. Everything is still well frozen over but there are a couple of open patches where the lake is aerated so perhaps they land there.

The feeder is rarely visited and only by black-capped chickadees and the odd red-breasted nuthatch.
