More fun with animals.

The funniest part about our trip to the Julia Davis park were the geese. This time around we brought some stale popcorn. The geese at this park are far more courageous and daring. They came right up to us, practically eating the food right out of our hands. We gave Quincy a few pieces of popcorn to feed to the goose and this is what happened:

Here the goose is sitting nicely, as if he's trying to communicate... please give me some of that popcorn... PLEASE!

Quincy still didn't quite get it, so Tyler had to show him how.

And here Quincy is tricking the goose. He would hold out his hand as if he was going to throw it and as soon as the goose would get closer to get it he would shove it in his mouth and laugh out loud. It must have been a funny game because he did this over and over until this goose came along:

This goose (the one of the right) was mean, notice how his head is in a low position and it looks like he's about to attack his prey, Quincy. He was hissing and making nasty noises. I quickly had to tell Tyler to get Quincy further back. Quincy obviously doesn't understand the concept of a 'mean goose'.

Here Quincy was trying to make amends with the mean goose by waving his hand while saying "HI". Unfortunately the gooses' heart was not softened. Perhaps next time Quincy will break him down.

Quincy looks super cute in his COVERALLS!!!! ha ha I've always liked overalls on kids. They are very practical, too. Especially for playing boys.
