Skywatch Friday

I have taken a break from blogging this past week, but not going outside for walks in the evening.

The other night I stood at the edge one of our pastures and listened for a great horned owl I had been hearing recently at dusk. It wasn't long before I heard the familiar call off to the north in a wooded area. A moment or so later these Canadian Geese appeared and flew noisely in from the south west.



They banked north and flew right over me.

For years, Canadian geese were a sign of autumn here in NJ. Now they stay here year round. Lovely shots! Happy SWF. :)

I enjoy listening to the geese as they pass overhead. The clouds are really nice. Love the pinks.

The Canada geese are busy over my skies right now too. Gotta train the young ones, get their strength up. ;-)
Happy Sky Watch!
