Goose


Woerden has a goose colony. One day they arrived and decided to have the centre of Woerden as their living space. Each year they are growing in number and more present. I have created the habit of greeting them when I walk to my car in the morning. Sometimes I feed them, since I started to do that they recognize me from far and make a lot of noise.

    Geese can give quite nasty pecks and here sometimes they're used as watch "dogs" as they can make quite a noise when someone approaches. These guys, however, look more friendly..

    That is such a cool photo. Though a bit Hitchcockian too!

    Oh goodness! We have Canadian geese around here that come for the "winter". They sure do get loud and make a mess... if you know what I mean!
