More of the goose fam­ily. I took a lot of shots of these guys. Fort Collins has a real prob­lem with them though. They were intro­duced to the area in the 1950s, and ever since then, the pop­u­la­tion has climbed steadily. Very few ani­mals here prey on them. Humans don’t hunt them much because appar­ently they taste like goose shit or some­thing equally foul (pun intended). Show this pic­ture to any­one who has lived here for a while, long enough to have to go through the back entrance of a store because a pair of geese have nested in the entry way of the front and attack any­one who gets within 20 feet–they’re going to just see four more annoyances.

Still, so cute!
