tied to Earth


Gliding across the lake surface is all they can do at the moment. The Canada geese and some of the ducks at Canyon Lake are in their summer molt and are flightless. The lake shore is littered with worn out feathers, the new flight feathers are growing rapidly and the year's goslings are acquiring their adult plumage. They should take to the air again soon, but right now they are earthbound.
