Geese in the Yard


When we arrived at the lake house on Thursday, we saw geese strolling through the yard. When they saw us, they headed for the wetlands nearby but not before I took a few pictures of them.

Not far away, there were more geese next to the lake. They were Canada Geese and there were close to a hundred of them. I believe they were visitors; I haven't seen so many Canada Geese at the lake before.

The geese pictured here are domestic geese, probably farm geese gone wild, if you can call it wild when they are living comfortably on a community lake and getting treated to regular handouts by people who live nearby.
