I have just remembered that at both NY Town Hall and at Tarrytown Gord did not use his usual "Nature" introduction to "Restless" but instead paid tribute to Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger
who had an encounter you may recall recently with some Canadian Geese

A skein (flying group) of Canada Geese Flying South For The Winter
as displayed on:-

at one time I used to often walk around the lake at nearby
Warinanco Park

which required careful stepping as the geese used the pathways as restrooms. there are as number of skeins visible to the left of the tree in blossom, completely occupying the footpath
Gord, prescient as ever of course wrote
"The wild goose will be on her way"
and
"I can feel the restless yearning of those geese as off they roam"
I would have thought that the Hudson ditching makes an interesting story that Gord could weave into a song??
