If you look closely at the next to the last image you will see a sea of white.  That is what looks like a thousand migrating tundra swans.

Ken discovered them this morning on his early morning trip to bear trap canyon via Ennis Lake.  He was greeted by geese, deer and mallard ducks as well as the swans.

It was a memorable morning.  The temperature at the time was in the twenties.  Now it is in the fifties with sunshine and a breeze.

I am loving this spring time weather.  It is supposed to be this way all week.  Wish you were here to share it.

The Geese Were Talking

I was enjoying my morning meditation by the Madison river when I heard the sound of geese over my head.  They always seem to chat with each other as they fly in formation.  We are hearing and seeing more of them daily.

The weather remains awesome.  It was in the mid-forties this morning.  The full moon was taking its time setting as the sun made its entrance.

Yesterday was rather windy but so far today it is beautiful and calm.  It feels so good to enjoy the warm weather and sunshine.  What a magnificent day.

Break Is Over

This morning I visited the Madison River at Burnt Tree fishing access for the first time since returning home.  A gathering of geese on the island in front of me caught my eye. 

After wandering around for a brief time three leaders seemed to signal the break was over.  They all lined up in a row and entered the water one at a time as the current swept them away at a rapid clip.

It was sixty-five degrees then.  Now it is pouring down rain and the temperature outside is sixty degrees.  I am amazed at the amount of rain these past three days.
