I remember years of driving New York highways to visit my parents. First, both of them when I first went away, then one, then I didn't have to make the trip anymore. Then our son went to school in Rochester, and we got to drive the Thruway again. The same landscape you describe always fills me with both nostalgia and melancholy. It brings back memories of the best days of my life and sadness over futures that never happened. Thanks for taking me back.MojoManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283343683800473324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-31564234148578251422008-12-10T22:37:00.000-05:002008-12-10T22:37:00.000-05:00Nina your words are poetry and I know these geese ...Nina your words are poetry and I know these geese so well..a constant in our skies.Naturegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00177418253271097079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-70572726322055269922008-12-10T21:31:00.000-05:002008-12-10T21:31:00.000-05:00And both honking !!!And both honking !!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17989947946488835186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-33525804481347658232008-12-10T21:02:00.000-05:002008-12-10T21:02:00.000-05:00Dear Nina,Beautifully written, as usual...my heart...Dear Nina,<BR/><BR/>Beautifully written, as usual...my heart breaks and I sigh...<BR/><BR/>(((Hugs)))<BR/><BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-21908747549019819592008-12-10T19:49:00.000-05:002008-12-10T19:49:00.000-05:00Giggles--I have not been to Cape May, though I kno...Giggles--I have not been to Cape May, though I know several who go regularly in the fall just for that reason.<BR/>It is amazing to have such activity going on overhead--and along this stretch of road, though I've driven it many times, I had never seen it like this!nina at Nature Remains.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07888238636692649668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-61613544531171439802008-12-10T18:20:00.000-05:002008-12-10T18:20:00.000-05:00I am sorry to hear that you have lost someone clos...I am sorry to hear that you have lost someone close to you Nina. Maybe the face in the sky made by the geese is the face you missed seeing in the doorway waving goodbye. <BR/><BR/>Geese are improving in numbers. I wonder when they will saturate their native habitat and cause their numbers to decline again.

Migration central, as it is the last stop on land for many a species before a long flight over ocean.... This fall, having visited there for the first time in over 15 years (maybe even 20!)with my daughter's 6th grade class, I saw my first peregine falcon....hawks, eagles ducks egrets...it was quite a day...it is a fabulous place to bird.... They even have a monarch tagging program!! The demonstration brought tears to my eyes...the miracle of it all....<BR/><BR/>Your prose is quite thought provoking... Thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
