Against the wind

Listen. Can you hear the wind?

It was a beautiful sunny day today, but the wind was constant, coming from the south and west. My planned ride for today headed north and east from home, which meant I would be fighting the wind on the entire return trip. I suppose I could have changed directions, but somehow that didn't appeal to me. Coming home was noticeably against the wind, a bit of a fight, good exercise...

These geese were clearly a good excuse for a camera stop!

I couldn't believe how many geese were prancing across this field. I wish that it was possible to get a little closer - but crossing a fence onto private property just didn't seem like the right thing to do. Watching from afar had to suffice for today.
