This is a small family of geese me and my friend Dan (above) ran into at a big garden in Schwetzingen Germany. This guy let me pet him and play with him a bit, but when I started asking too many questions, he pushed me along by pulling at my socks! He probably got mad when Dan called him a duck! The lesson? Wear shoes when playing with geese, they have sharp little teeth. I look fat because I am wearing my back brace.
I didn't know that most people get attacked or chased by Geese. When I look back now, he didn't really get pushy until I stood up, and then he only pulled at my socks. His beak never touched my skin.
