Just got back from my lunchtime walk around the Back Bay Fens. I saw goslings - honest-to-goodness goslings! I don't think I've ever seen goslings before. They were yellow and fuzzy and well within Momma and Poppa Goose's protective reach, so needless to say, I kept my distance from the lot of them. I'm now all too well-aware of how strong that parental urge is to protect your offspring from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
