Geese Wait for Handout

One generally presumes that urban geese graze on the plush front lawns of some corporate world headquarters or at the local golf club but not so with these guys. You might recognize the site as in the area of the Duluth, Minnesota Harbor. These "harbor geese" hang around the no grass area back of a wholesale salt distributor waiting for their dinner. Now you ask......salt? Well, not salt. These wiley critters wait for a grain truck which has unloaded grain up the street to come by to sweep out before it picks up a load of salt to bring back home. According to the fellow in the salt warehouse the birds spend most of the summer there just hanging out for a handout. I guess for some its a choice of grazing for dinner or just standing there waiting for a handout!
