Just before noon, I heard the familiar honking of geese as I was out painting some flower pots. It is not unusual to hear the geese as they fly to and from my cousin's house to the west. She sets out a fine buffet of feed for the critters so the geese feel welcome to dine there. The honking lasts only a few moments as the geese fly past the Little Bayou House. This time, however, the honking did not cease. It kept on and on until I decided to meander down the hillside to see what was up with the neighborhood critters.
Thankfully, nothing appeared to be wrong with the geese so I suppose they were either "taking the slow route" or were scouting out potential nesting sites. In a way, I hope it is the latter since the pair headed up the Bayou. It would be nice to have little goslings about the place.
I watched as the geese disappeared into the marsh. Baby geese soon, maybe? One can only hope!
