Behind my house there is a large field, then a fence and a small field on someone else's property. Lately there has been severl flocks of geese landing on that other property. Around 7pm they start coming in to land in that small field. So yesterday I took a walk out there (with the cows) to see why they were landing there. Turns out there is no reason....the field has a small dip that they are all standing in. There were 20 or so when I got there. While I stood there, at least 5 more flocks came in. I got a couple good pics, nothing real special since my cam won't focus quick enough. I uploaded a couple flying ones today and have some landing ones for tomorrow. Anyway, as I was watching another flock flying in, I heard the geese on the ground making a fuss. I turn around and see that the people let their dog out and it chased all the geese away! I have never noticed that dog chasing them before. So I wonder if they wanted me to leave or the geese. I'm going to do it again tonight I think. :) This photo is a little more than half the geese that were there before the dog came.
