Hi, Tweets!

I awoke just before midnight on Tuesday night -- geese overhead! Heard
them again around 2 and 4 and 6AM, then finally saw a string of them at
7AM, although they were just dark shapes in the clouds. We live in
Wedgwood, three blocks east of Seattle Audubon. The night was cloudy and
the city lights were reflected, so I was afraid that they might be
flying around in circles. But, no! It sounds as if there are just a lot
of them. We also heard them early this morning, Thursday.

These did not sound like Canada Geese. I listened to the call on the
whatbird.com site (thank you, Sandy Daniels!). The audio there sounds
like what we were hearing. Must higher-pitched than Canada Geese.

Fall is here!
