The Goose Whisperer

Noni took us down to the park where she used to go swimming with her siblings. It was really neat to see a little piece of her history. Knowing that there would be ducks to feed, Aunt Wanda prepared a bag of old bread for us to take with us. As we walked around the park, we came to a place that was shaded but there were no ducks to feed on that side. Kevin decided to get the bread ready anyhow in the hopes that we would attract a couple of ducks from the other end.

Boy, as soon as Kevin opened that bag, we heard the call of geese approaching. Suddenly they came over a rise like a stampede! They passed Noni, Isaac and me right up as they chased Kevin and their next meal...

We just hoped they wouldn't take a snap at our legs as they waddled by!

This picture doesn't even show half the amount of geese that surrounded us!

The flock leader...
