Sadly this Mother Goose or Father Goose appears to have lost a partner. Previously this season, there have been 2 families of geese. It is always remarkable to me how diligent the parents are in raising their little goslings. One parent takes the lead while the other always brings up the rear. Now there must have been a catastrophe and now only one solo parent is left to manage all alone.
Goosey Goosey Gander Family at swim practice June 16th. Note the attentive adults.
Around 3PM this afternoon as I sat in my brown chair, there he was - Peeping Tom. It must be the same one that left calling cards in front of each of the doors last Thursday. Oddly, for a better view into the house that darn Peeper must have perched on my Hosta by the Hummer feeder. (smashed leaves in case you are wondering how I knew) Actually, from the calling cards it must be Mrs. Peeping Tom. Is this also a solo bird or a scout, and soon the entire gang will be peering in all of my windows? Has my privacy come to an end?
A Bapa-inspired dinner.
