Canadian geese can be pests (and create a mess), but when they take their little family out for a walk in the park, it can be quite fun to watch.
These geese used a lot of teamwork in watching the babies. There were a total of 6 adults, 4 were watching the babies. The other two acted like teenagers, making noise, running around, and hitting up the humans for bits of their dinner.
It reminded me of watching a kindergarten class on an outing to the park.
I takes a lot of attention to keep track of this many little ones.
This one looks to me like she is sending her little ones out into the world, and a little nervous about it.
This mallard got mad when the geese invaded his territory.

What a fun outing! Where do you go that you can see the ducks and geese so close-up? They must be practically tame.

on a side note, Mr. H pondered how many turkey dinners we could get out of that gaggle. giggle.
