“Trying the other day to imitate the honking of geese, I found myself flapping my sides with my elbows, as with wings—and uttering something like the syllables mow-ack with a nasal twang and twist in my head—and I produced their note so perfectly in the opinion of the hearers that I thought I might possibly draw a flock down.”
~Henry David Thoreau, “Canada Goose,” March 20, 1855~
Thanks so much for commenting on my photo of the flying geese. They are everywhere this time of year, so much so that I usually don't think of them as a subject for a photo.
