I like them both. There were quite a few swans that day and they even flew around the lake a few times. I tried to get a good shot of them on the wing but most of those didn't turn out well.

No, but she does take off after squirrels and deer. But to her credit, she comes back when I call her off. She's pretty gentle. I doubt she'd stand up to a goose or a swan.

That lakefront is beautiful. It was hard for me to get used to the lake being to the south at first. I know the geese shit all over the place, but they're really pretty cool birds. Swans are easily twice their size.

I love the call of the sandhill cranes. It's a prehistoric sound. It sounds like a cuckoo to me. And in flight they look for all the world like pterodactyls.

    With all the ugliness we are enduring now, it is so nice to see the beauty in our country. I had a Gracie at one time. What a wonderful friend they can be.
    Thank you for those awesome pics.
Thank you. It's a beautiful place, for certain. I love where I live.

Gracie is hard headed, stubborn, willful and smart as a whip. When I have to walk her on a long lead, she knows to walk around trees on the correct side to avoid putting them between us. When she wanders into the brush, she'll retrace her footsteps exactly, again so as not to get tangled. She'll walk at heel off leash and she moves to the trailside for bicycles. She found a lost walkie talkie for a hiker one day by getting the scent of the remaining one. I let her sniff it and told her to go find it. She walked forty feet or so and stood over it til I picked it up. That dog is no dummy.

It's nearly impossible to keep her out of the water. Her latest beauty treatment is mud baths in the swamp. They must work- her coat just glows.

Geese get a bad . They're loyal and faithful, they aggressively defend their territory and their young, they refuse to sit down and be silent and they're really quite beautiful. And while geese may spread their shit around on the ground, serving a very useful purpose, they don't sling it at everyone around them like Republicans.

Thank you. I have no idea what kind of winter we'll have. Last year was fairly warm, the year before was cold. It's anyone's guess what's gonna happen. I heard you had snow already- we might have to head north for winter.

Thank you Annette! The mature forest here is open under the canopy and often thick with undergrowth wherever the sun penetrates, like along the edges and where one of the giant trees has gone down. I love that old growth forest, and it also makes me feel very small. Gives you a different perspective.

There are days in the springtime when the geese are making an unbelievable racket out there. And last spring a pair of trumpeter swans showed up to add their horns. Now and then it's punctuated by a chorus of sandhill cranes. We've laughed about that a number of times, about how we go there for the peace and quiet.

Gracie has fun everywhere but if there's water included she's in her element. She loves mud baths too. I've given up trying to keep her out of the muck.

    Did she get any of those rats with feathers from Canada? LOL!

I don't know why so many of you are prejudiced against Canadian geese. Whenever my boss went to the mailbox he came back cussing the geese and scraping his dress shoes. A friend of mine noticed this and rewarded the geese with corn. And the geese paid him back by continuing to shit all over the yard!

I love watching her in the water. She's right at home and she tastes the water as she swims. She's still young enough that she gets very excited about it and runs for joy just because she got to get wet.

She does! Remarkably, she leaves the birds alone. She'll chase varmints and vault off after deer, although she always obeys when I call her back. But she doesn't bother the birds.
