Break Time — A Perfect Fall Moment

I took a walk in the overcast afternoon today with our two sweet puppies.  Toward the end — we were approaching the house — two flocks of squawking, happy-sounding Canada geese — one a few minutes after the other — flew over, heading south.

I made the puppies stop.

Three or four of the Geese in each of the two flocks changed places — falling back and/or moving into the lead.  I wondered how they decided who was going to do that.

I listened and watched, savoring the perfect, quintessential fall moment, all the while knowing that if we don’t deal with climate change I might be one of the last to see it.

Our Al boy saw the them too and it was fun watching him watch them.

Then they were gone.
