Our Japanese Garden closes for the summer but when I go over the fall and winter, it's interesting how the population of birds changes. One time there might be ducks by the hundreds another time there might be just a few ducks. Another time there might be several cormorants and the next time not a sign of them. I always wonder there they go.

Okay, I'm kidding about that but I cannot imagine where they would relocate them to. I know a few areas are coating goose eggs with oil so that they never hatch, which seems like a good way to me to cut down on their ever-increasing numbers.EG CameraGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803759124643467711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669721126705732069.post-29958710048860426612015-07-09T09:24:19.297-04:002015-07-09T09:24:19.297-04:00What a wonderful photo.
