One of the most memorable features of a southeastern Pennsylvania winter is that it’s highly variable. You can be deep in snow and shivering in sub-freezing temperatures, and then the weather warms up to the point where the hats and jackets are unnecessary.
Such was my recent trip to the Land of Winter Variability. Not a sign of snow when I arrived. But a few days later, totally different scenery…
Shortly thereafter, the weather warmed up and melted a good bit of the snow.
In honor of this occasion, I took a walk over to a nearby farm. It’s quite the hot spot for non-migrating Canada geese. (Or should they be called Pennsylvania geese?)
Once these birds sense that a photographer is approaching, up they go…
Tip: If you should happen to be mingling with geese, watch your step. Why? Because geese are prolific. They leave plenty of squishy souvenirs on the ground.
So, unless your hoofs stay outside the house…
You’ll need to do a thorough cleanup before going back inside…
