Those Geeses are the perfect trafic speed reducers at our lane.
They use to cross the street many times a day, walking slowly from one to the other canal.
As the small brigde is for walking and bicycles, car drives usually stop for the geeses, but dont look for the many people and kids crossing the road.
Last summer we had a deadly accident there.

I really like your geese photographs. I used to work at a place where we had geese at pets and that was the first time where I really found out what interesting creatures these were. One got to view the family closeup, the little ones growing into full sized geese and the temperament of these creatures. Of course here we have the Canada Goose in the majority.

I like your perspective on this and looks chilly cold out too. Well done.

Jan, Hi:


Mavelous title and lets hope the cars start stopping for people as well. You are having a winter for sure.

Hi Jan,
Nice title, sure beats the sleeping policeman (speed bumps) which are there to ruin the underside of sports cars Wink. Looks like they are in a hurry to get their share of French bread Smile. More snow fall here tonight Sad
Regards
Vic.

I can see Meri off to the right with the bread! ;-) Nice composition and exposure on this Jan. You would think the moving geese would have the drivers trained and ever vigilant, no matter what was moving!
