Happy Thanksgiving! <\/p>\n

This is just a somewhat random shot from Willow Deck on the tour loop on a dark morning at Bosque del Apache NWR\u2026but I like the expression on that Snow Goose. I am not certain that he was talking about turkeys at all, in fact, but, by the look of it, he was certainly saying (or thinking) something pointed about what I was doing up on that deck. Considering the proximity of the holiday (and the well known solidarity of birdkind) it is not unreasonable to think he was warning me off, just in case I mistook those big birds behind him as the centerpiece of the holiday feast (or just in case I was so untraditional as to fancy goose as the main course, or even a side dish:)<\/p>\n

No really. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. May your table be as laden as your heart, and may your heart be big enough to embrace all the blessings of the year. May you overflow with thanksgiving. <\/p>\n

I know I am\u2026overflowing that is\u2026<\/p>\n

And if you need independent testimony\u2026well\u2026I offer you this goose! He will vouch for me. <\/p>\n
