I was mauled by marauding mallards on Monday

[donutsweeper]

Actually, I lie, the mallards, weren't that bad, it was the geese that tried to kill and eat us.

Oh wow, it's people! Must run to them!


Got anything for me?


I am thinking about biting you right now.


Me too!


Nom nom nom


There were plenty of mallards, but the geese bit them and chased them off. One mallard family was smart and stayed in the water off the side trail

Babies follow Mama everywhere


except when Mama swam off a bit to threaten a goose that swam too close


And, why not, a picture of random turtles sunning themselves on a log.

*tickles the turtles* They are so sweet! They're all like 'hi? Can we help you?'

There is nothing cuter than baby animals. Lookit how fluffy they are? *fluffs*

I was amazed at the different size of the goslings. None of the pictures have adult geese, they are all different aged babies- from nearly full grown with full wings, to still very juvenile with stubby wings.

DUCKLINGS. Even the threatening goslings are pretty cute. (Since they're not trying to nip me.)

I love the way that top turtle has his feet splayed out in back of him like that. The ones at the zoo here do that too, and it's so funny.

Thank you for sharing! Is your computer okay?

ETA I have no idea why I originally read your lj-cut as "naked pictures ahoy" - heh.

Computer is... uncertain. It appears to be an overheating issue and we cleared out all the dust, cat hair, dirt, cat hair and more cat hair from the fan and whatnot and got the a/c unit in the window but it still shut down randomly once after all that. We'll see. *crosses fingers*

Both turtles were just enjoying the sun. It was very cute!

eta- well, none of the animals are wearing pants?

Geese are scary *nods*

Ah, yes, geese are like that - lovely pictures (and captions) though.

And I really love the turtles and mallards.

Geese terrify me when the congregate.

Brain fried.

The turtles are most ADORABLE

OK, I have to say it:
"Look Ray, turtles!"

Geese scare me a bit. I've been run off a sidewalk by them and cornered outside my office by them when the population here was much higher some ten years ago. I kept threatening to make them into Sunday dinner but they never listened.

Geese really are. *nods too*

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

What's weird is these are the same geese that, a month ago, ran from people. Not sure what changed

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

geese can be EVIL

*pets*

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

The turtles really were.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

*giggles* I knew someone would!

Geese can be mean. *nods*

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Especially when you have food.
