Snow Geese fly overhead as the marshy lake at Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge freezes during this sunrise shot. The mix of the fog and haze in the low areas mixed with the partly cloudy skies and partially frozen marsh lake made for a very interesting reflection of the birds and trees.
Tundra Swans heading to northern Canada to their nesting grounds. We saw hundreds in that past week which is heartwarming as it is not so along ago thatvthey were endangered.
these Wildebeest had spent the night in the woodlands and were heading towards the Ndutu Marsh area (in the south east of the Serengeti, Tanzania )
The south east of the Serengeti is the most southern part of the annual Great Migration . It is the area where most of the Wildebeest calves are born.

It's that time of year and the geese are headed south...
This was captured a couple years ago on a cold January day, so these geese may have been part of a small flock that sometimes stays in our city during the winter.
Encore plusieurs groupes en l'espace de 30mn environ.
Je croyais que c'était fini. Est-ce que cela sent le froid arriver ?

The beginning of the annual Monarch Migration - Panama City Beach, Florida
Tom's Butterfly Garden earlier this morning. The silvery leaves of the Buddleja davidii (Butterfly Bush) look almost like butterflies in migration themselves.
Home now from the most amazing trip to Kenya and South Africa. The Great Migration in the Maasi Mara was certainly the highlight. Memories to last a life time!!!
Hello everyone, I have been back for a week now but still very busy catching up with the multitude of tasks. Currently I am away for a few days in Bendigo where there are matters to attend to.
I had an enjoyable trip in both Madagascar and Kenya, took heaps of photos and I am happy to spot the big five but a bit disappointed not to witness a migration crossing the Mara River!
Will catch up when time permits.
Happy Travel Tuesday

I was always under the impression that when December, snow and cold weather came around . . . Canadian Geese and other water fowl migrated south . . . or somewhere?
This isn't Waikiki Beach on Oahu, get going before you freeze into the pond water!

I witnessed an awesome crossing of Wildebeest in Kenya a couple of years ago! While going through my photos I am again overwhelmed by the view of this spectacular event!

A refueling stop for a monarch butterfly on its way to Mexico. I've seen a fair number of monarchs passing though Wichita this fall on a regular basis, but typically just one at a time and not in any big bunches.
Dunes migrate downwind. The sand grains march up the gentle, upwind slope, then cascade down the steeper slipface. The dunes pile up over the top of other dunes. When they pass, older dunes can be exposed. That is what is seen, commonly, at White Sands. The ridges in the interdune flats are the remnants of the earlier dunes.
Every spring the Snow Geese move from their wintering grounds to their arctic nesting areas throughout the Midwest along with thousands of other waterfowl.
I have never seen so many. Amazing sight!

Crane migration over our house on Sunday, the 22.11.2015 towards the South, after the storms had stopped here in North Germany.
Just a small section of the tens of thousands of Snow Geese that are on the move across Pa. They will eventually make their way north to their breeding grounds on the Arctic Tundra.
