Sixty geese go over the Great Fields, in one waving line, broken from time to time by their crowding on each other and vainly endeavoring to form into a harrow, honking all the while.
H. D. Thoreau, Journal, November 18, 1854
Sixty geese go over the Great Fields. . . endeavoring to form into a harrow . . . See November 13, 1855 ("seventy or eighty geese, in three harrows . . . gradually formed into one great one . . . shifting their places without slacking their progress.”); November 20, 1853 ("Methinks the geese are wont to go south just before a storm, and, in the spring, to go north just after one, say at the end of a long April storm."); November 24, 1855 (" Geese went over on the 13th and 14th, on the 17th the first snow fell, and the 19th it began to be cold and blustering. ")
