Some of the Canada geese take flight Sept. 27 from the field at Willow and Sauerkraut lanes in Lower Macungie Township across from Willow Lane Elementary School. The flock stopped by to feed on leftover corn from the recent harvest and made for quite a sight.

It's that time of year again.
Just after the harvest of the cornfield at Willow and Sauerkraut lanes in Lower Macungie Township, flocks of Canada geese descend on the acreage to pick it clean of the kernels left behind. The birds spend hours uncovering the treasures between the rows of cut corn stalks.
They feast before flying South for the winter.

When the geese come you know fall is here. I've noticed declining numbers over the years. There was a time when the geese flocks flew overheard and was deafening the sound and awesome to see.
