On Thursday morning as my Mom and I reached Cesar Chavez Elementary School, we noticed a large flock of Cackling Geese working the school's fields.
Cackling Geese are a smaller version of Canada Geese.
Their colors and sounds are identical, but they have much shorter necks.
These geese were enjoying a rare sunny morning munching on grass.
They are entirely herbivorous and eat a variety of plant species and parts, especially grasses, sedges, grain, and berries.
Thanks Beth. I had never heard of Cackling Geese. We are loaded with the good 'ol Canadian Geese.

I learned something new again Beth, I'd never have known the difference. I do like geese and love to see their formations as they fly. One of my favourite artists is P Buckley Moss who has geese in many of her works.
