Geese heading down the driveway

The geese walked right through the gate and then down the driveway. They must have a place where they spend the night out by the entrance to the ranch, as they went right by all of the animals in the corral.

And, yes, that is a puppy next to the truck.

Top answer a question that Memphis MoJo left in a comment yesterday, all of the geese seemed to know where to go and did not really have to be led by one particular goose.

Kate asked about the house beig elevated, and I do not know the reason. Houses in Costa Rica are usually not elevated, and this house was not close to a river where houses might be elevated to avoid flooding.

This week we are showing photos of the Canadian Thanksgiving on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site. Julie joined some good friends there last month.

  2. Messy, sometimes mean or quarrelsome, I still like to watch these animals. Their fat butts waddle in such an appealing way as they walk!! Christmas goose...fatty but SO good. Num!!

  3. It's such fun to watch animals on a farm, they seem to know exactly what the 'schedule' is and where they're meant to be at certain times, like feeding time. Creatures of habit. Great series of pictures Dave. Enjoy your weekend.

  4. I kept looking at that little puppy and how tiny it is compared to the geese. What a cute scene this is.

  5. I like this composition, Dave. There is so much going on, with the geese, the puppy, the oval of the tire, the red plant, the gates and fences . . .

  6. One would probably not accuse these geese of being as fast as greased lightning!
