Back to the park -

I took some treats back to the park today for my friends. This was the only small group there, and no goslings.

This one ☝️was really paying attention. I took green grapes that I cut in half, and when I pitched one, he was the first to grab it.

Many times there are more Canadian geese there, and they will come right up to me and take a grape right out of my hand. Not today though.

I felt bad for this ☝️ one because it had a small piece of plastic netting stuck on his beak. If they had been taking grapes from my hand like before, I could have grabbed the netting.

It actually felt kind of cool out there with the wind today. I’m not complaining though.

Smooth Sailing

I found a couple of Canada geese on the kids’ fishpond. It was cloudy but the water was smooth as glass.
