Darn it. I thought Soul was going for more sophisticated.
am, the geese are always aggressive. When they have babies, they are downright scary. They will run toward us from across the hillside... even when we are nowhere near their babies.
I do think the ducks and the geese know us though. Most of them are fairly mellow around us. There are three ducks, that I call Tres amigos, who always greet us, and follow us around the pond. One is white, one blackish, and one brown female. I believe that those three were dumped by someone who bought ducklings for Easter, and then didn't want them when they got bigger.
Below is a terrible pic of the Tres Amigos... but there they are.
