Feb 7, 2010: Mystery Goose Yesterday, we went for a brief walk in the park--a walk that turned out much briefer than we planned, due to the gust front blowing in and chilling the place down with icy winds and lowering dark gray clouds. After feeding the usual suspects, we saw an unusual goose along the shore of the swamp pond. It was much too trim and shy to be one of the big domestic geese; I suspected it to be a wild visitor, like the Canadas that drop by.

(For here, that's cold. I know about you people up north.) I was ~~worried~~ slightly concerned that the birds would be hungry for lack of park-goers to feed them. I need not have worried. Apparently rain keeps people away, not cold. Several people were out feeding the birds large bags of bread. I found the cygnets, almost grown now, being feed by a nice lady with a whole bag of crumbs. ( more ) Jan 25, 2010: Note to Family-in-Law I mailed one of Rochelle's presents last Thursday, Jan 21. I mailed Pat's present last Friday, Jan 22. Let me know if they show up, or seem unreasonably delayed.
