On my way to work today I saw 2 geese, honking loudly while flying south to hotter climes...
I next in the next few weeks, I'll see lots more, and it's a sign that winter and the Christmas Father are just around the corner... |

I see and hear geese all the time. They are going in all directions. I don't think that it means that much.

You're very lucky Cat,
We don't see them that much here, at least not in the city... Here it's too cold for them in winter... Usually you see more and more flying to warmer climates, mostly after autumn ends... Either they're flying to warmer regions or to a party lol... |

I live on the East coast in the UK and near a Bird Reserve, and it is fast approaching the time we see large numbers of Swifts in V formation fling off to West Africa for the winter, beautiful and amazing to see.

With the fairly "mild" winters we've had lately, and people feeding them in the parks, a large number of geese and ducks have become "permanent" residents here.

I think the last time I saw a swift was about 100 years ago  Although I have heard the chirps of those green parrots that were in London, and they seem to be spreading all over now... I've yet to seen one in Manchester though, because I've only heard them chirping lol |

I think that's nice, at least for UK it's nice, because we get to see birds that were not native but have decided to settle (like the green parrots I mentioned in my response to Duttoneer) .... |

I remember my sister and father had that same disagreement ever Spring. My father saying that he saw the first Robin which is the start of Spring and my sister saying that Robins don't migrate. I always stayed out of that argument.
