A Field Near You: The geese are learning to fly

My ring tone is dissonant enough to grab my attention, but I didn't realize how similar it is to the squawking call of Canada geese until some of them flew over the other day and I stared stupidly at the phone, which didn't seem to be responding. A goose-hunting friend from Cochranville who is very familiar with their habits told me that at this point in the summer the goose parents are training the young ones to fly, looking for the first-cut corn.
