Re: strange gardening year

For the first time, I saw a snow goose (blue phase) in the farm pond next to my house. These geese generally breed in the arctic and migrate to the gulf coast for the winter. If it thinks we are the gulf coast, you guys further south are in real trouble!!

Here, here. I am no fan of cold weather either. And now I know for SURE that winter is coming early this year (if it doesn't I'll be so shocked)...we have had thousands of Canadian Geese flying south over our place...we have three ponds. They stop and rest and then leave again. I can't remember ever seeing them this early, in such large amounts.
