Introducing… the goslings!
Just recently, I was walking down the street when I saw a goose couple with their babies. I was very excited and happy because those babies looked very young. Seeing something like that is exactly why I try to remember to take my camera with me wherever I go. So, I got the camera out

W is for wing
At last, it really feels like spring. After snow and wind and freezing weather, spring has finally arrived. Today, I was out for a walk and I saw two geese and their family of nine goslings. The whole family was pecking at the ground. I would guess that they were looking for something to eat.

O is for on their own
On a rocky coast, far from home, Bearnacle Bear and three pirates sat and watched the ocean. It had calmed down since the wild storm that caused the pirate ship to list wildly. The tender that they used to get away from the ship was damaged and possibly not sea worthy. They looked to the
