Feeding the Ducks

The other day after the kids got off school, we went to feed the ducks/geese. When we get there we park at the top of the hill, have to walk down the hill to get by the river bank where they all hang out. Well on our way down the hill , half way down we see some trees and there is a white goose laying on her nest surrounded by some trees. Well the kids kept going to feed the other ones down at the bottom of the hill, I stop to take a picture of the mother goose, well there happend to be big tree roots sticking up out of the hill, and as I was trying to zoom in I kinda lost my balance and trip a little on one of the roots when I kinda fall forward a bit, and this mother goose stretched out her neck and let out this big hiss , well it sounded like a hiss to me that is the only way I can describe it, but it scared the crap out of me and then I almost fell down the hill after that . I wasn't even that close to her but all I could think was she going to come at me, so I let her be, when we were leaving I did get a few more pics though.

and here are some of the kids
