Helpful Posts: The standoff. The goose has no intentions of giving up his little puddle of water even after getting a firm tongue lashing from my son. Amusing.

Re: The standoff
Dave, FWIW, it's not unusual to use them in place of guard dogs.

Re: The standoff
Nice shot.
I'm not a great fan of these messy birds, even though the goslings do look quite cute. The parents are certainly protective of their young and will attack cyclists and people walking by. The are certainly messy and leave their droppings everywhere.
I remember how amazed I was when I learned that they were considered endangered back in the 1950s.
