Here are a couple of pictures taken at Narrows Virginia a month or so ago when we (Melva, kids, mom, Matthew, Vickie and me went down there for dinner.
This is funny to me because Kenny and I love to take Isabella to go feed the ducks, but the first time we went I think I kind of "romanticized" the whole idea. I saw us, sitting on the swing, calmly feeding a small bunch of ducks. What actually happened was that we ended up about running away from them and Kenny actually had to kick at a couple because they were chasing after us and just about nipping at us. It was hilarious!
I know what you mean, you don't think of ducks and geese as agressive, but actually they really can be. Matthew's mom and dad had a few ducks and one goose on their farm a few years ago, and if you got close to the ducks the goose (who thought he was boss of the farm) would come running at you hissing and trying to pinch you with his bill. He would too if you turned your back on him.
