All Amys needs to know about life she learned from Canadian Geese.
Amy and I walk up to the lake almost everyday. And almost everyday Amy analyzes the behavior of the geese. If you could listen in on our conversations here are some of the things you might hear her say:

"The geese are in mourning today. They're mourning the loss of their friend. I think we just need to give them some time and space."

"That one is a mean one.""The geese are still kind of skiddish today.""He's friendly. Look how he's standing with toes pointed and his feet on top of each other."

"He's a teenager. Look, he's all wide-eyed! He just went through a growth spurt!"

Disclaimer: I shouldn't make Amy out to be the only crazy one. I too have been known to participate in these conversations. My best goose quote (after watching the geese slide around while trying to walk on the ice): "It's just like watching the Gospel."I know. We are ridiculous.
