They're beautiful from a distance, but MESSY!!!
I used to live in an apartment complex that had a recirculating creek thing running through the complex. The geese loved it, but you couldn't walk on the grass in your bare feet. I finally fully understood what "crap through a goose" really means. LOL.
I was feeding the babies once, and ran out of bread. I went back in to get some more. The babies followed me in. I had to carry them out, quickly, before they made my apartment like the yard outside! Amazingly, the parents didn't care at all when I scooped them up and put them outside.
