Loves Kenneth Scott photo of Canada geese family But serious issue arises over number of offspring I love this photo! Kenneth (Scott) did a great job. s/Frances Salyers D & F Grocery & Deli 4731 Edmonton RD, Columbia, KY In the Village of Gradyville, District 4, Adair Co. , KY Thanks. It is one of my all time favorites. And it is good to see community rivals at Gradyville and Bliss get along so well. However, already there is major controversy about the photo. We carefully counted four goslings, but Old Coddger, whether in the interest of science or to foment trouble, has counted five little geese? Hope the great minds at D & F can come up with a definitive answer. -Ed Waggener 2010-04-21 04:58:57 | Comments | Printable version
