I must tell you, since I was talking about them only a few entries ago, that I saw an astounding number of geese this afternoon, when I was driving back from Fort Collins on a side road that took me past acres of farmland on which thousands of them appeared to be sitting and roosting. I say thousands and I really do mean that. My view of them, from the road, was unobstructed by trees or hedgerows or any other foliage or growth, and the fields themselves looked like they may have been fallow. The geese were spread out across an area at least a half-mile wide, and, in most places, between fifty and a hundred yards deep. It was an amazing sight, in my estimation. Had someone been in the vehicle with me I would have exclaimed to them aloud.
