Please don't feed the geese or ducks.  Many people stop by the pond and feed them bread....this is the worst thing you can do and here's why.  They fill up on the bread which has NO nutritional value for them.  Because they are full, they don't eat what they should be eating.  This causes damage to their wings and malnourishes them.  I hate to burst your bubble but we should protect wildlife.  

 

 

Thanks for posting this.  I sure hope people stop.  It is not helpful at all.
