Migration of birds – geese and subluminal stimuli.
I’m happy, when I participate in being a witness of migration of birds, geese.
I’m very lucky fellow I’m living in Inverness, North Scotland where the gooses have their expressway. On the end of January the middle of February over my house thousands of birds traverses. Intensity is taking place in the morning. I was very pleasantly surprised when I discovered, that the gooses come around 8.10 am every day for a week, as an immense wave.
Amazing performance! I think that it is incredible, what distance those birds can cover, and also overcome problems, tiredness.
I think it is amazing what the gooses can see, meet and the big experience achieves.
I know that is the instinct, part of their live. Instinct, which gives them great opportunity to meet our world. Of course, most probably gooses don’t notice that.
But, what if?
What, if geese deeper the knowledge and experience. Birds watch world and see the changes that is happening. What, if they want to tell us something important, make us realize, enlighten.
From the last two years I was thinking about gooses as some kind messenger. I really like watching them; I am trying to take photos of their performances. The goose’s gaggling chains my attention. In my opinion gaggling is very pleasant, not like for example noise made by seagulls – screech.
The gooses cannot speak any of a human language. We cannot speak like gooses.
But, what if, the geese find a way to communicate with the people. Sings in the sky. What if, they created signs for us?
Maybe, the gooses want to share with us their experience and observations.
That idea comes whilst watching my photographs of gooses. Their bodies in the sky remind me of some kind of exotic language; Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Indian or even Russian Cyrillic. Those sings, in my personal opinions are full of beauty and magic.
What if for hundreds of years the geese have been watching us and coexistence the gooses discovered what kind of signs is taking to the people?
Of course we are still too busy, living in stress, and we don’t pay attention, what is happening around us. We are losing our self.
My idea is going farther.
What if, the geese through subluminal stimuli pass us their experience and knowledge?
Maybe the geese are asking questions about something very important that matters?
Do you know, where is this everything going to? Do you know what you are doing? Maybe the geese shout to us: DON`T RUN LIKE THAT, LOOK AROUND YOU!

The Dialogue held on 26 September 2017, was attended by more than a hundred people including, representatives from various ministries, embassies, academics, researchers, employers and workers representatives, civil society organizations.
The meeting continued the implementation of the India-EU Common Agenda on Migration and Mobility (CAMM) signed last year, and comes ahead of the upcoming India-EU Summit to be held in Delhi in October 2017. The CAMM addresses four pillars: better organized regular migration and the fostering of well-managed mobility; prevention of irregular migration and trafficking in human beings; maximizing the development impact of migration and mobility; and promotion of international protection.
There's nothing better when you shoot from the hip at some brief event and somehow the picture comes out ok. That's what happened here. Heard the geese overhead, scrabbled around for my phone and just managed to capture a few of the slow stragglers!
