No that doesn't sound so odd at all. actually, I can totally relate.

There is an abundance of large birds in my area and I love to observe them, especially the red tail hawks, turkey vultures and (if you go further west) the majestic bald eagle. There are also a lot of waterfowl; geese, ducks, a few herons and just as recent as last spring we had a pair of bonny swans take residence at a small local lake where they had the cutest li'l babies

I too enjoy hearing + watching the geese as they fly in formation across the gray sky, and Gordon captures that nostalgic feeling perfectly in "Restless". It's like magick how he does that with his songs.
