#yegbike larger area musings, Camrose edition:
Coming into town, I had been texting with my daughter about family business. (No texting while cycling, there were many rest breaks).
I mentioned that in this long slog of a ride; I was thinking a lot about Boston Pizza for supper. The kidlet has some connections in Camrose, so she asked them to recommend some independent food places.
Prime Fried Chicken was the winner, and we had a great supper there.
I forgot to add that we had come across great concentrations of Canada Geese in some of the wetlands. Like 2 or 3 hundred. They took off in great murmurations - I didn’t know they did that. I also didn’t recognize their call, they make a different call when doing that, I guess.
Also this motel is better equipped, much more comfortable, and way friendlier than the one in Ponoka - and cheaper!

@Jeneric@mstdn.ca They might have been Cackling Geese, which look a lot like Canada Geese but are a bit smaller and tend to congregate in larger flocks. Greater White-Fronted Geese also look somewhat similar and love big flocks (and cannot lie).
