1 more picture in a note above! :)

I went out today looking around for different kinds of wheels for the Bokeh Thursday theme this week, and while I was checking out the bulldozer to see if there were any posibilities there (nope!), I heard geese in the distance. I stopped to see if they might come by. What are the odds, but they flew right towards me in a beautiful V formation and against the lovely clouds in the sky, I got my Picture of the Day!

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, 1st Marqués de Dalí de Pubol (May 11, 1904 – January 23, 1989), known as Salvador Dalí , was a prominent Spanish surrealist painter born in Figueres, in the Catalonia region of Spain. Dalí was a skilled draftsman, best known for the striking and bizarre images in his surrealist work. His painterly skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters. His best-known work, The Persistence of Memory, was completed in 1931. Dalí's expansive artistic repertoire included film, sculpture, and photography, in collaboration with a range of artists in a variety of media. Wikipedia: Salvador Dali

Lovely image, Janet! Those geese obviously knew you were out and about with your camera so they lined up in formation.
Have a great weekend.

Lovely photo Janet! I get a kick out of the lone threesome...there's always loners in any group. To my chagrin I have yet to get any of our geese in flight...always dozens around, but never flying.

I'd be a goose if I could. The thought of dropping everything and flying away to sunnier climes for the Winter is very appealing to me. Great capture!
