Partial eclipse

 Suzi made a cereal box viewer, and we just caught a peek at the partial eclipse here in Choteau, Montana.

Top hole was made with paper clip, and bottom hole was made with a tack.

Looking forward to the full eclipse here in 2044!

Freezeout Lake Montana: Canadian Geese

 2 days ago the water was mostly open, but since the winter storm that rolled through it looks like most of the lake is frozen with some open areas.



Freezeout Lake Snow Geese

 Decided to go for a short drive to look at the birds, did not think we would see much due to the time of day, but we saw enough action to satisify us.  

Today      Geese estimates: 51,000

                                Swans: 5,953
