The group kept coming and coming. They were in no hurry.
Once on the other side, some of the geese stopped to see if there was anything interesting in the grass. Others hung out on the concrete. Tony was very patient with the procession, but when a couple of them showed an interest in perhaps stepping back onto the road to head to the other side again he slowly and cautiously started moving. That deterred them long enough for us to get past.
Five years ago: Cool!

That's funny.
ReplyDeleteThere's a permanent group around the pond at the Sam's Club at 95th and I-35. Some young ones were taking their time to cross the street over to the gas station, so I parked and shoo'd them to hurry up. I don't think Sam's sells frozen geese in their meat case. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteWhat a thoughtful gesture :-)
DeleteOh my gosh! That is a LOT of geese. That's something we don't see in Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteYou're lucky. They're quite a nuisance.
DeleteThey live in their own world, maybe a tour group of geese from out of area.
ReplyDeleteHA!
DeleteHow lovely to see, and so good that drivers are patient.
ReplyDeleteI was amazed at everyone's patience, and wondered if it would have been the same during rush hour.
DeleteWe have a lot of geese in Bucks County and often see then crossing in lines like this and this time of the year with babies too. That was a Long procession.
ReplyDeleteThe longest I've seen.
DeleteSuch a great photo of the geese just doing what they wanted to do. I'm sure that the stopped traffic were all grabbing their cameras to snap a photo of this not so everyday sight...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you're right.
Deletenature at its best!
