Canada goose running away from friendly goose lover (me) at Greek Village

Canada geese are SO SO cute, they're my favorite animals of Raleigh.

I absolutely ADORE them. I love them even though Canada is in their names, but I think it just makes them cooler.

My favorite part of my daily downtown run is to see them eating at Greek Village / GMSFB (see below).

The runners up are probably squirrels, eagles and deers.

Where to see them?

  • Greek Village (best for close interaction)
  • Governor Morehead School for the Blind (the great lawn north of Rocky Branch Trail)
  • Your lucky neighbor's yard (he has a pond)
  • Pullen Park
