2. Geese are flying back to our ponds!
Yeah, they're landing on the ice saying "what the heck?" but they're at least back here!

Haven't seen any songbirds yet but we didn't feed this winter so they're mad at us.

3. We saw TONS of geese this morning
Huge groups of them, flying in their V-formations. Very cool.
I sorta wish we had a pond. :)

4. There are ups and downs to living by a pond
Imagine the smell of pond algae in the middle of hot humid July x(

MOSQUITOES :yoiks:

Goose poop :wow:

Geese and duck fly @ very odd hours (AM...PM... :crazy: no sleep)

Deer eat everything! (trees, bushes, flowers, vegetables)

But it is beautiful and twice a year we are hosts to the most wonderful pelican crowd!

Spring brings goslings and ducklings and turtles :loveya:
