Duck, duck...goose!

Even though our condo is small and we have to walk up three flights of stairs, one great thing about it is that we have a nice pond right by our building. We especially love it on pretty days like today when we can take Eliza outside and enjoy the weather and feed the ducks. She loves it. Everytime a duck waddles up and eats a piece of bread we've thrown she lets out an excited scream and points at them and sometimes claps. It's so funny. When we are out of food to give them and it's time to go back inside she cries and we have to tell her that the ducks have to go to bed but we'll see them again soon. There are usually a couple of geese over there too which we don't like. They are loud, annoying and they pick on the little ducks and steal their bread. Big bullies! We try to throw it right to the ducks so they have a chance to get it before they get snapped at by the geese. Eliza doesn't really know how to give the bread to the ducks yet. Whenever we give her a little piece to throw she eats it instead. She'll catch on soon enough. Here we are getting ready to go over and Eliza is all ready with the bread.

What a fun thing to do! I don't know why geese are so mean!
