They're baaaccckkkkk....
The geese, I mean.
I think this is the mom and dad and the babies from this spring, but, if so...
several babies are missing.
This bird was WAYYYY across the pond.
It stood like that, staring at the top of the dam, for almost 30 minutes.
Maybe the others were over the dam on the other side.
The others finally got worried, and hit the water to go see what was up.
Whereupon goose six slid down into the water and joined them. That still left one of the original six babies missing, or... one of the adults.
The pond was so peaceful.
We had a storm this morning, and the huge lilly pads had drops all over them.
The spent pods are beautiful in their own right.
The buds are beautiful, too!
There were lots of happy tour kids today.
Even the older kids enjoy riding the train!
Others were walking from building to building...
Or stopping to take pictures, as this man was.
We had strong storms this morning, and right now, are expecting more tonight.
I hope we have a little cooler temps tomorrow when I will be at the Ag Hall all day.
