Description
A flock of Canadian geese enjoy a peaceful autumn day in their own private sanctuary. These beautiful birds are a common sight here in northern Ohio. I've been fortunate to be able watch these birds go from egg to fully grown. They inhabit many areas along our downtown shoreline, much to the dismay of the folks who have to clean up the sidewalks. They were here first and return to what they consider home year after year. Our buildings provide them shelter, our nicely manicured lawns provide them with a convenient food source and the puddles in the road after a rain are a fantastic place for them to wade. They have adapted to our invasion of their territory quite well I think. I just watch my step while on walks downtown, it's worth a little inconvenience to be so close to nature.
