The Goose Whisperer

Everyday we feed our ducks. And in the winter months we are joined by Canada geese. They wait until the ducks are done feeding and then finish up. There is a small group of 7 geese that are more accustomed to our presence and will come within feet of us. It is not uncommon at all to see several hundred geese at one time on the shore line. I think they come to us first because of the food and second it is a safe zone from the hunters you can often hear in the distance.
