Yet Wise Enough To Chase "the right goose"

These are the Canadian Geese that come through during their migration. They can be seen flying in large clusters in there V patterns honking away. These shots were taken in the runoff canal right next door to the Goodwill store, just last week. I had to climb down an embankment to get this shot, I was about ten feet away when I took it. They seemed fine with my admirations. I gave them a bit of caution as I left, "look out for the hunters and fly high".

We see them here too, but the only ones we see on the ground are the ones that live here all year round, as peoples' pets.

My camera is not too shabby for a cheap one. Of course I didn't have to do much chasing, they just kind of looked over at me as if they knew I meant them no harm. Besides the certain lack of camo might have tipped them off. I'm sure I did give the Goodwill guys a good laugh while I was trying to be tactful going down the embankment.Ha Ha Ha !

In the country some people use geese for watch dogs. The dogs come in the house, and the geese stay outside and chase off strangers, and other critters.

By the way... I thought you might want to know that we just found out, along with having high blood pressure, my Honey has been diagnosed with having type 2 diabetes. We are relieved to have our assumptions verified so he can get this under control.
