Geese Town 2010-08-20 There have been painted cows in New York, horses in Vienna, and this year there are Rhinos in Chester UK. Here in Austria, Gänserndorf (Geese Town) has had painted geese watching the streets and gardens for a few years. Here are two of them. Wonderful comments on yesterday's early morning shot. Thank you all.

Gars am Kamp The castle ruin in this small town is used for summer open air opera. The stage and seats are built into the central courtyard as shown here. This year's performance is La Traviata. Shows sometimes get rained out - the rain started here just as we returned to our car.
