Today, I was driving around the sharp curve, that passes by the river. There was a snapping turtle that peered out of the water. We consider turtles to be slow. This snapper popped its head out of the water, startling two...

Don't Feed Waterfowl Bread Please!

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222417) • United States 6 Aug 23

With the last bits of summer around and fall around the corner, I thought it was time to talk again about feeding waterfowl bread. The temptation when you're talking a walk around a pond is to feed the ducks, geese and swans from...

The Geese are Loving This Weather

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 27 May 23

We woke up to light rain and calm winds around 6:15 a.m. when we took the dogs out for first potties. I was wondering if the water had risen or fallen overnight, so we walked toward the dock. The water seemed higher and covered...

Just Drizzling

Stacey @xstitcher (39034) • Petaluma, California 5 Nov 22

Evidently good weather for geese--though I think the geese in the area go scrounging for bugs no matter what the weather. Went for my morning 1/2 hour walk. It was just drizzling, not raining really hard--though it's certainly...

In the countryside the swans and geese are kept in the open.

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23241) 27 Oct 22

There are no cages or enclosures in the countryside in India for swans and geese. They venture in the open in the grasses. Whenever they like they swim in the ponds and lakes. During the lunch and dinner they are fed well. That...

Today's shopping trip down town.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 7 Oct 22

So, I went shopping again today. Mum asked me to get "the usual" before she went into hospital, so that's what I did. My usual socks are hard, crusty and uncomfortable, so I decided to get out my Doctor Who TARDIS socks. My...

I had an appointment on Friday for my annual mammogram and when I got to the doctor's office saw all the geese exiting the parking lot in a row, one after the other. The geese fly in every winter and choose which lake to hang out...
