A different Park

We go to the park a lot. There's a lot of space for the kids to run around and make noise and play areas for them to discover. Nolan had a job interview the other day and we checked the map and noticed it was close to one of the bigger parks that had a pond/lake in the middle of it. We tagged along and he dropped us off before his interview. The kids had fun because the ducks and other birds were out en masse. We didn't have stuff to feed them, but we enjoyed walking and looking around. We saw some interesting birds that I didn't know the name of right away, but the kids loved trying to imitate what Mommy was saying. Almost all of the pictures were taken without zooming at all, the birds were so used to humans.


Knut saying "hi" to all the ducks.









These were some of the birds we saw, they were so peaceful and still, they barely moved when I approached to take these pictures.







At the play area there were a few other kids to play with.







Then Nolan showed up, he had gotten lost and had to reschedule his interview, but he stopped and got us some bread to feed to the ducks. The kids had a blast until the geese showed up and started demanding some. Nolan had to be the big meanie and chase them away as they kept eyeing Nevan's bread he was eating and then they started watching his toes.
