Canadian Soldiers: The Winter Troops

We’ve been invaded from the North! Our neighborhood has been under siege the past few days.
The troops were seen carrying out their mission along the exposed edges of front yards as the snow slowly melted during the sunny but frigid days.
They tried to set up camp in a neighbor’s front yard but were forced to retreat when curious children and being shot at*
overwhelmed their limited numbers. In this photo, the troops were regrouping in preparation for takeoff.

*Although I shot at the geese with a Canon, I promise and certify that no Canada Geese were harmed during the creation of this post. 😀
