Weird weather - what's next?


OK we have suffered through a miserable August and September here in Southern Alberta. Hardly any of our crop is harvested and much of it is languishing out in the field wet and on the verge of sprouting. Now I hear it is going to be 25 degrees on Saturday and nice for the rest of the week. Now that is what we need on the farm to get crops off. This weird weather does make me wonder though what is coming next for fall.

October is usually a time of year when many birds start migrating. Will this weird weather throw them off? Have they started migrating already? I haven't seen our snow geese come through our fields yet. Every year we have a huge number of snow geese migrate through this area - we are definitely on their flight path. It is a wonderous sight to see.

More on bird migration - next time.
