      One sunny day the Mallards met up with the Geese.  Goose said to Mallard, “You know you are on our land.”  Mallard said, “This Park belongs to all of us.” Goose give Mallard a little shove to make him move.  Mallard said,’ I’m going to the water, to cool off.”  Goose said that is a good idea, I’m going too. “The other Geese and Mallards that was watching decided to get in the water too.
        Goose said, “This Lake is big enough for all of us to enjoy.”  Mallard agreed with him. They all had a good day, swimming and visiting with each other.

      The young ones (goslings} often will stay with their parents their first year. The young ones get along well with its siblings. They will sometimes  coo to each other and at times they will lie down close to each other when they take naps or sleep. 
       In the spring and summer months the geese will feed mostly on grasses, clover, and submerged aquatic plants​.
People food; like bread, popcorn, and crackers isn’t good for the geese. When the geese eat people food, they may stop eating the natural food that is healthier for them, which may cause the birds to become malnourished.
      After their hunting trip the young ones are ready for a nap

 Young Downy Woodpecker, female
      Do you ever have days when you feel like you are just hanging on until someone comes along and takes your hand to pull you up the top of the limb? This young downy woodpecker is feeling that, I do believe by the look in its eye.

      This woodpecker is the smallest of all North American woodpeckers. The downy woodpecker has soft, downy white feathers down its lower back that is how the woodpecker got its name
