The Flight of the Geese.

The geese are flying south & soaring high
in a precise formation in the sky.
Stop, look & listen as the day begins.
Hear the honk of the geese in the rising wind.

Thousands of geese migrating south this morning, these are the tail enders & the only ones I was able to photo.

Three good things:
1.I have booked our airport taxi!!!
2. Wrapped a few Christmas presents.
3. Sellotape.

Sellotape is a great invention! Lovely shot, I like the crop and the darkness of the trees.

Number 3 it is!!! Gorgeous shot....how lovely for you to spot them. I thought they flew in a V formation..obviously dyslexic !

[Pat Knowles]

@fannyb There were so many this morning & most were in a V but I was in the library van & missed them. Funnily enough they seem to fly over on a Tuesday...exactly the same last Tuesday, hundreds!!!

[Judith Johnson]

Lovely winter scene. I haven't even bought any Christmas presents yet!

[Pat Knowles]

@busylady Well I haven't bought that many but away at Christmas so have to just see what fits in the suitcase...not normally as early as this believe me Judith!

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Wrapped!!!!!!!! I haven't even got a list!! But I did drip some scotch over the mini cakes today! Love the shot....ohhh to see that!!!

[Pat Knowles]

@ruthmouch Scotch! As in drink Ruth....I love it !!!!!

A lovely capture, Pat. Some of the geese from Canada have already arrived here. Many stay around and don't fly further South like they used to.

[Jane Pittenger]

Beautiful sense of melancholy

[Barbara Paquette]

Love the crispness of this shot and the monochromatic look. Your timing was just right - the composition came out great!

[Diana Moss]

Wonderful capture Pat . I expect you are getting exited about your trip !

[Judith Greenwood]

Oooh well caught! I'm still struggling with Xmas present ideas let alone wrapping!

[Jean Tookey]

A lovely winter capture. I like the composition of the shot.

[Phil Howcroft]

+FAV Pat, the letterbox, the black border and of course the gorgeous geese make for a lovely artistic shot

[Pat Knowles]

@phil_howcroft Thought you might possibly like this one Phil! Thanks so much for the fave!

[Michael Elliott]

Nice capture. You probably had to shoot fast.

[Rick Schies]

Yes, it is that time of the year

[fife]

That time (again)-- time literally flies ;-)

[Vicki Dixon]
