I've stopped reading some people's blogs because I tired of the whinging about how Oklahoma is or isn't. Personally, I think they should move, but since that's out of my control, I just stopped visiting them.<br /><br />We occasionally see flocks of migrating geese overhead, but I don't think they visit here much and I've no idea what nationality they might be (or is that species...). I suspect the enormous seagulls here might hold their own against geese.<br /><br />I remember visiting a park in SLC with several friends. We sat down near a pond and an enormous goose came over and settled in my friend's lap. We had nothing to feed it, but it stayed for over an hour and apparently enjoyed being petted. I really felt sorry for the poor thing - an abandoned pet I imagine - when we left. All of us had other pets we thought might harm it and so couldn't think about taking it home.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239488936038510294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474350601993629544.post-17553909453554842042012-04-12T19:45:48.021-07:002012-04-12T19:45:48.021-07:00Thanks, Beryl--this was really sweet. The little ...Thanks, Beryl--this was really sweet. The little donkey is THIS CLOSE to letting me pet it. He's already braying like he's the boss. <br /><br />I remember those geese from my women's college. My freshman year, there were a few around the lake. By my senior year, you couldn't go near the lake. I went back two summers ago, and everything was covered with poop. Hmmm, the geese won. Over by our lake here in Oklahoma, geese TRY--but they fortunately prefer the lake on the opposite side of the highway. Good riddance. I'd hunt them (foul, mean creatures--unlike pigs and cats and llamas and even those fancy-pants bugs).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474350601993629544.post-18311618906052124532012-04-12T19:39:59.646-07:002012-04-12T19:39:59.646-07:00We don't have any geese in town, but I can rem...We don't have any geese in town, but I can remember being terrified of them as a kid.
