Canadian Geese are so Cool

Today I got to spend the afternoon clearing brush and several times while I was working, I heard the sounds of Canadian Geese calling as they were flying by on their way to or from the Rogue River, where they spend time in mid-migration.

I always stop to see if I can spot them and they invariably bring a smile to my face. I love to hear them calling, and it's wonderful to see them forming a V as they fly along. Today I saw two pairs and a single bird. To me, hearing them as they fly over our property is very special and tranquil and I always feel so lucky to experience this. They are a symbol of this wild place in which we live.
