This was drawn from a pair of geese on the mill pond. Canada geese are great subjects for pen and ink. They’re already black and white.
This gaggle spotted Sailor and Bliss over on shore. They decided to come over and cause trouble for my goldens, who were minding their own business. Typical rabble rousing degenerate geese!
Sailor couldn’t take it anymore and swam out to say hello. What’s a boy to do.
What we have here is a failure to communicate.
Lovely drawing Tim. Looks like the geese misjudged Sailor!

I suspect those geese could have been much more defensive on dry land, at least if a nest were involved.

They were funny. They really did swim over toward the dogs, highly unusual. I think it’s because they are getting ready to nest. They didn’t like it when Sailor swam back!

Thank you so much Holly! Yes, the water is pretty cold to me, but I think those dogs have anti-freeze in their blood.

Those geese deserve every bit of trouble that comes their way. LOL We have been seeing the great blue heron and a flock of mallards on the pond lately. Fortunately the geese don’t stick around.

Those geese think they own that pond. They seem to want to give the dogs the dickens every time we come around.
