I had such a great time this evening! Guess what I was doing... ;p
I was feeding ducks! Well, decided i'd go shooting (with my camera) today and decided since I had some extra bread sitting in my room, why not feed the ducks? And then i remembered that there were a family of duck(lings) and goose(lings) near the Cavendish labs....

And so Sean and I cycled down to the Cavendish. On the way, we also saw a *hop* rabbit *hop*. I'm sooo not used to rabbits being in the wild. To kenny, rabbits = pets = stay and home in a cage. To sean, rabbits = food. haha. but yeah, it's so cute.

So when we arrived on location, the goose and goslings were the first to spot us, and they dunno what is call "paiseh", knowing that we got food for them, headed straight for us. I must say it was quite a traumatic experience initially to have 6 goslings and 2 geese so close to you especially when you're sitting down and seeing "eye-to-eye" with the geese. but soon enough, the goslings and some (male) ducks were huddled all around me trying to sneak bites of the bread i brought.

and they are damn cheeky! at least once, while i was holding the piece of bread in one hand and morsels in the other, they took a sneak attack from behind me (i was sitting down) and grabbed the (big) piece of bread away from me! hmm. but nonetheless they were all very cute.. and i've never had ducks/geese/ducklings/goslings feed off my hand before... or for that matter, ducklings were kind of fictional in my vocabulary before I came here. :)

to finish off, i thought i'd put this picture. -goslings in close proximity- the 2 photos i put up here are quite lousy cos they were shot using my handphone camera.. (i was shooting on film, which takes a while to be developed and scanned..)
