I do hope the eagle got fed but am glad the goose protected his lil buddy until you, the superhuman with the magic clicking eyeball, scared him away. We have lots of Canada geese here in Arkansas this time of year. It irritates the snooty rednecks in their monster houses by the golf course. Which just makes me love them more.

They say winter brings the birds more together - the nuthatches, chickadees and downy woodpeckers hang out, and so it makes sense the duck and goose wood.
