This is very nice, Dawgluver! Where is Joisey? Is it far from you?

Just turned the heat on. Well, actually about thirty minutes ago, before I took a shower. It's only 42 outside and the house needed the chill taken off the air... although the furnace has kicked on 3-4 times already and it's only set to 70.
Fall may just be here. Plus a couple days ago I noticed that I haven't seen a robin in at least a couple weeks. Brrr.
They also stay the winter in places where people feed them enough.I just recently heard that geese will not fly south if they have an open water source. I don't know how they know that the water source they used last winter won't freeze this winter... but maybe that's why only some of them stay.

That's a very interesting question. Beavers build much thicker dens in years of little snow fall (snow helps insulate). Old timers used to know a lot of that kind of thing. I would love to hear the science on these phenomena. What are the geese, beavers, etc. detecting? We have found out that birds know which way is north because they have magnetoception, a magnetic sense.I just recently heard that geese will not fly south if they have an open water source.
