New Babies!

Living in rural Indiana, surrounded by State Forrest ..we see our share of wildlife. However, usually its for just a moment or so, and then they move on to where ever it is that they travel to. I took this 1st picture a few months ago, when a pair of Wild Canadian Geese landed at our place and took a relaxing swim in our pond. As days went on they came back again and again, almost daily. They even got used to us going out to take pictures, and didnt seem to be the least bit scared. Well, lil Miss Punkin got very attached. She would squeal with delight when she heard the familiar "Honk Honk" that they made as they would come in for a landing in our front yard. She would scream out "Mamaw!!! They're Home!!!! ". After a few weeks we didnt see them again, we would hear them fly over, but they had stopped their daily visits. Well... outta the clear blue a few weeks ago... they came walking down to the pond from the wooded area around it... followed by a brand new gaggle. Four lil fuzzy feathered babies. They stayed the whole day, swimming,and hunting for snacks in my brand new perennial garden...lol.. The parents stood by, quite proud, and I felt they came back just to show off their new brood to us. After this visit we havent seen them again, so I accept it as an intended visit :) I felt very honored that they chose our place to have their new family.
