THIS MONSTER KILLER GOOSE ATTACKED US!Yes, I know he looks harmless and peaceful now, but under those composed feathers lurks a violent antisocial personality. After chasing us away from one side of a pond, we hastily removed to the OTHER side, only to be treated to a stealth attack! Without warning or noise, we found ourselves suddenly descended upon by a furious Canada goose, who chased off the two smaller children and viciously beat Tallman and me to the ground, mercilessly whipping us with his wings! We still bear battle scars. Bucolic nature retreat? NO! Rather, a scene of many vicious criminal attacks.
Never a dull moment in our family nature study. :-)

Are you SERIOUS?! No WAY! That sounds dreadful, and I feel terrible that that happened to you, but at the same time I'm trying not to laugh. (Sorry)
Calandria took the words right out of my mouth. Just think how much fun you'll have retelling that story in a few years. It will be a great memory! Hope everyone is OK.
Actually, we were laughing about it even before we left the park. Although there was a guy up on a hill nearby mowing something, and we were embarrassed to run into him later! LOL I was telling my mom last night, but she says she doesn't want to tell all her friends that her daughter and grandson were beat up by a bird. :-)
