i got out of my car this morning and there were several pairs of geese waddling around the parking lot of my building. likewise, there was goose crap everywhere. so yes, spring is here, despite the fact that it briefly snowed yesterday and it's cold out. last year there were a couple of geese who made a nest right in the middle of our parking lot. i guess they thought it was a good spot at the time because the lot was mostly empty and the building was under construction. it all worked out because there weren't many cars at the time. so they had some little goslings and they left the parking lot and headed for the nearby pond. ...but i wonder if the same pair will come back to try to nest there again this year. that would be dangerous, there are cars zipping around like crazy these days. i'm lucky if i make it from my car to the door without getting run over. today i move to a new building, so i guess i'll have to wait and see, once i'm coming back here for meetings or something.
