An Early Summer Visitor

On Tuesday we went down to the beach for our first swim of the season. We were about to leave when this little baby goose came swimming up to Saga and wouldn't leave her. Earlier that day we were heading into town for a Dr. appt and met a family of Canadian geese on the road.  The mother and father flew away and left the 4 little ones by themselves.  I was hoping that they would return after we drove away.  We didn't see them when we returned from town which was great.  The assumption was that they found each other and went on their way.  So when this little one swam up I felt horrible because I assumed again that this was one that got lost.  She followed us home, waddling after her new mother, Saga.  We had her for two days but then she disappeared when we left her down by the water to eat.  Saga loved to have her but I think she was also a little bit happy that she moved on.  It's exhausting for a 4 year old to have to think about a little goose following her all the time.  Saga could run anywhere because (Priscilla) couldn't keep up.  I'm sure it's just one of many animals we will have passing through our lives.
