Canada Geese at Sherwood Island State Park. You'd better not get too close to them. One of them kept watching me. You can see it on the right-hand side of the photo.
Some people use Geese as "guard dogs". They make such a noise when an intruder comes that it is like an alarm system. It's a lovely photo Marie and I loved the seagull photo too.
I can only apologise for cutting and pasting this comment, but there was no way on Earth I would be able to make it around the whole globe to wish everybody a Merry Christmas otherwise. It pains me to admit that I am a mere mortal and that the magical elves on my staff have little respect for my authority (let alone my preference for minimum wage). Consequently, all they seem to do is sit around drinking beer, playing cards and throwing rocks at the reindeer!
Anyway, from myself, Henry and Ezra, have a Merry Christmas/Winter Solstice/Hanukkah/Festivus and a happy New Year!
I hope that all of your holiday photos turn out to be triumphs, and may your stocking be stuffed full of lots of tasty treats and not coal, that all your soufflés rise as you would like, and that all of your presents are free of lead-based paint!
Bonjour Marie! Excuse mon absence, mais ces dernières semaines ont été affreuses… Finalement j’ai réussi à visiter ton blog mais seulement pour te désirer des Belles Fêtes! J’espère revenir avant 2009… ;) Entretemps Blogtrotter est parti dans une aventure en Inde! J’espère que tu l’aimes et je te souhaite une bonne semaine!
OH they can get mean, can't they?! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!!
