Webby Road

We all loved this photo in today's paper by Bee photographer Craig Kohlruss:

Geese cross over the new double yellow line in the road Tuesday at Woodward Park. The park opened to traffic again after a brief closure to changed the road from one way to two way. Officials are hoping that the change will help alleviate the traffic backlogs on crowded weekends and holidays.

Craig had this to say about capturing the fun picture: "I've always liked those geese out there but I've never seen them act that way before. I thought that if I got very close, they would scatter. But they never did. I'd take a few shots with a telephoto and then move a little closer ... and closer still ... until I was right over them with my wide angle.

"They were funny because they would follow each other across the freshly resurfaced road to the other side and within a few minutes would turn around and cross back over again. I think the guy in the story hit it right on. They were practicing crossing the road and looking both ways!"
