Ginger and Mary Ann and our drained Pond at peak color
These were taken about a week or so ago around peak color. Now you have an idea of what walks with our geese look like. Also our pond has excavators in it as I write, mucking around in the goo. The plans are to put a new drainage pipe in today and then we'll decide whether to let the pond fill back in or allow the sides to dry and scoop out a little bit more of the gunk a few weeks down the road. We shall see.
Amazing seeing the silt build up from decades. The geese wandered over with us this morning to take a look at the progress. They hang close behind us, striking various meditative poses, as if they were silent advisors, emissaries flown in from the bird kingdom to offer their 2 cents worth of wisdom. They're pretty terrific padding about on the carpet of fallen leaves, perfectly comfortable and content to be with us. Yay.
