Silly Goose!

We had to take a trip to Home Depot late this afternoon. As we left the store, I happened to notice that the "mall geese" had begun reinhabiting (is that really a word?) their grounds at the nearby mall. I am probably a bit too bold near these things, but I had some geese years ago and I recognizr their silly attempts to discourage humans from approaching them. I was far away when the goose in the foreground raised its wings to try to impress me! I had the camera raised and enjoyed the antics, thoroughly! Notice that the bird is even up on its "tiptoes"! After it saw I was not the least bit disturbed by the exhibition, it merely joined its mate, nibbling on grass and totally ignoring me and the camera!
