The photo really doesn't do the experience justice, but I want to provide you a visual image of my recent visit to Gray Lodge Wildlife Area near Colusa, California to watch the wonder of a million birds in migration.
I would like to call them Excellent Birds, but that's been said before.
They arrive by the thousands and drop from the sky,
landing in groups of two, three, or six sometimes and all at oncce.
A Pintail circles around another,
one other takes to flight.
A cloud of Snow Geese grace
the liquid surface of the world.
The sound of wings uplifting is like a sudden burst of inexhaustible joy.
