jhetleyFlotilla in the cemetery pond when I headed out, geese spread out among the markers when I came back. Best estimate I can do, maybe 3 dozen. I *think* there may have been a merganser in with the flock when it was on the pond. I *hope* that wasn't a loon, because the pond is too small for loon takeoff runs.
Roadkill porcupine by the roadside about 9.5 miles into the ride, recent enough that traffic hadn't cleared all the quills from the impact site. Tough luck tires . . .
A few of the maples are turning in the bog, which may show stress rather than season. Water level down because of our drought.
Got out on the bike, up to the golf course and over to the bog and home. Did not die.
