Another Bird By the Sea

Today I took my friends Beka, Brooke and Karmen to the docks before dinner. It wasn't very warm out and the girls were tired but Brooke and I took a short walk along the beach when the tide was lower. I saw a fair number of gulls and other birds but none new. The most interesting birds were Great black backed gulls and a Spotted sandpiper. There were also small fish and shrimp like creatures in

On highway 138 west towards Riviere du Loop the fields were turned white. Snow geese in such large numbers really do make fields look like they are covered in snow! There were 100s of them!
