SATURDAY CRITTERS

These are Greylag Geese that I photographed in Ward  Park.  The last image is a mixture of species of geese and this pair arrive back every year with us.  
I am linking this post with SATURDAY CRITTERS.

  12. Coming back to actually answer your question about the brie - put little cubes on top, when the dish is done. It will quickly melt, since the veggies are warm.Enjoy!

  16. Beautiful shots of the geese - they look very well fed! It's so green there. We're still under a lot of snow here.

  17. The first I saw this post was on my old fashioned cell. I could not figure out what kind of unusual goose you had found that had a beard. Now that I can see in full size and the total post I had to laugh. Beautiful work on your part.

  18. They are gorgeous! I don't know if it is the same breed by a different name or similar breeds, but they look just like the Toulouse geese I used to have.
