Fort Sam Houston has this awesome area where you can feed Geese, Ducks, Deer, Peacocks and Pigeons free everyday! It is a nice morning activity, and a great bribe to get through a day at the commissary or BX with Mallory! We bring carrots, apples and birdseed, and the animals look forward to our visit almost as much as we do!
Sometimes the geese can be a little aggressive... but this goose was very friendly!
You can't really tell in the picture, but this peacock followed Grandpa around EVERYWHERE! He was holding the bag of apples- the peacock's favorite snack! Mallory is talking to another peacock who didn't make the picture.
"Hey Deer! I have some carrots for you!!!"
(She actually was shouting that!
Apparently- they understood!
Mallory is not scared of the animals at all- she really likes to give them birdseed, because you can feel them tickle your hand as they eat- but Mommy is always close by with anti bacterial wipes... yuck!
Such a sweet and peaceful morning! What a way to start the day- for everyone!
