Thanks everyone! I must say again, these geese are not very aggressive. They live at my Mom's house and we knew them for months before we ventured too close. They do trust my son especially. My girls haven't been able to get that close. And mind you, I was just a few feet from him, my Mom was within arms reach, and all my girls were sitting there too. Not to mention my Mom's 3 little dogs who think Seth is part of their pack...LOL! He was safe. He might have gotten nipped, but it wouldn't have been out of anger...My mom has even held one of the babies.

I'm as amazed as Vicki! It makes me a bit nervous just to look at this photo - I genuinely don't know if you should be admired or locked up!! :) This is a very unusual photograph, if only because such a shot is likely to be followed by a close up of a hand with fewer fingers than expected!
