most of the birds around here don't fly south anymore, due to humans feeding the birds and other wildlife. in parks and by the lakeside, large signs tell people to not feed the wildlife and a lot of people blatantly ignore the signs. some would even buy stale bread at the bakery and deliberately feed the wildlife. so these guys must be thinking, why fly south when we're being fed here anyway. yes, indeed, why. humans are very bad enablers!
The Canadian Geese that come here don’t leave because of the balmy weather. Your image is perfect for your narrative. Did the bald guy come ask for his toupee back? 😅
The other problem is that bread is really not good for them. I've chatted people at some of our parks and their response has been along the lines of "Oh, but the little of bread I give them won't hurt them". Too bad about all of the other people that feed them too!!
