Baby geese!

A mid-afternoon walk as an escape valve, a little bit of relaxation during my work day...

As I walked through the parking lot of a nearby office building, I saw two Canada Geese just standing. I've seen geese in pairs quite a bit recently, but they are usually closer to water or grass, eating. I looked again. One goose was looking outwards, in apparent guard mode. The other was intently looking at the grassy patch. Oh look! There are 5 or 6 babies clumped together, resting.

I passed the same spot on my way back, and this time the babies were happily walking on the grass, snacking.

A beautiful sight, a true sign of spring...
