"This morning on my way in to work the traffic was stopped on Phipps Blvd. I looked and there were about six cars ahead of me and no apparent reason for stopping.... until I sat the whole family of Mom and Dad Canada Geese and their five little goslings. They were just sauntering across the street, sure that everyone would stop for them.. and I took a couple of pictures. They were precious! Started my day off nicely, although some drivers behind me were probably not happy about my stopping to take pictures!"

Canada Geese and goslings
On the lake on the south side of Lakemoore Drive - April 24, 2006

"I have quite a thing for the new geese family and have been taking pictures of them as I walk by in the morning with my camera phone. This was a particularly good one from Monday." --Gaylen Baxter

May 21, 2006 "Here's another pretty good shot of the geese on Lakemoore. I took this Sunday afternoon. They're getting big! We seem to be holding steady at six goslings--which is pretty remarkable given the dangers of snapping turtles, cars, etc."--Gaylen Baxter

Please do not feed the geese.

Please do not get too close to them.

Please drive carefully - the geese family often walks across Lakemoore Drive
