Walking through the forested wetlands of Heron Haven one can heard a loud conversation occurring. When I get to the back it is a large gathering of Canada Geese. Since the wetland is served by a spring there is usually some open water for the water fowl to gather around. While I am freezing these guys seem to enjoy a swim and a rest upon the snow covered ice.
