20170704 – A Rumble at the Pond
So I decided to go the pond before the 4 of July fireworks. It was rainy. But the pond was peaceful as you can see until …
We had a rumble in the pond … one more there was one Heron and then suddenly another one showed up. Herons are territorial and they began to fight. They trapped a duck and then the duck got feisty. Finally they rolled over a pair of geese and the geese were not have any of and swung around and they went into fight mode. It times like these when I wished I had better gear. But wow! It lasted for five minutes. No geese or duck harmed that I can tell. And only one heron left in the pond. The other flew away.
20170624 – Not as Hot
The redwing sometimes gets agitated when the heron is around. Don’t know why might be about territory but Heron just looks.
20170618 – At the Pond
Goodness, it was hot here and the Heron thought so too. But occasionally there was a breeze that made this Heron a bit punky.
20170610 – A Quick Visit to the Pond
So after going to a movie and lunch, I drove by the pond to see if there was anything to see. There were ducks, geese, and the heron who was going fishing.
20170521 – Aftermath
Well the rains have been fierce. Particularly this past Friday, the roads were extremely treacherous and there was hail. I finally go to the pond but it’s unclear to me that the goslings are safe.
But the Heron and the smaller birds were present
And one seemingly lone goose was sitting on the ponds shore.
20170325 – Feisty Geese
So its turned spring here and the geese are getting feisty again. They get a little cranky but they move fast.
20170422 – Rain Swept Day
We have had rain and it was also a bit windy. Even the heron was sheltering.
20170211 – Twilight at the Pond
The weather has been interesting this winter. Some days cold some days warm. But always the geese.
2016 Thanksgiving Weekend – The gulls at the pond
The gulls are back … and some are fooling around. And one is looking about.
