Nature photography from a woman in the woods

Honking Party . . .

My saturday morning was filled with hours of loud honking. A dozen Canadian Geese and 6 Trumpeter Swans decided to have a party together on the lake … The honking traveled on the wind which also allowed me to sneak down to the lake for a few pictures. I was blessed to be able to sit and watch the “fowl” party without being spotted for a good 30 minutes …. what a great start to this Fall weekend.

Ending with an afternoon nap:

    That would be fun to watch! They can get pretty loud too, but that’s a loud party I’d like.

    I love watching the geese (even if we do have to discourage them from staying). I wish a swan would drop by for a visit. Beautiful photos, Bearyweather. 🙂

    Hi Bearyweather, Though we don’t have Swans here in my area, I have seen Swans in the wild in Alaska. I have, however, seen plenty of Canada Geese! Have a great Sunday tomorrow. So nice you were able to get the pictures of the honkers!
