Sneak Attack at the Warden’s Watch
At approx. 5:30 p.m. yesterday, I was standing in front of the Warden's Watch, minding my own binoculars, when I felt a sharp pinch just below my knee.
I looked down to see the culprit — an agitated Canada Goose.
When I tried to shoo it away, its mate came flying in.
I retreated to the Warden's Watch, where I got the above photo from above.
The geese are probably nesting there, so beware.
Will put up yellow warning tape.
