Maybe we need a 'making the good news today' thread as there is just far too much bad news lately for my liking, the good news seems to get washed over.

 

 

 

 

 

Not exactly good news, especially for the turkeys, but something in keeping with the occasion.

 

I'd heard of geese droving, but not this.
