If you are curious how Penticton91裸聊视频檚 famous broken-winged Canada Goose is doing, Kevin is living the life of a celebrity, posing for the paparazzi and being fed nearly every day.

Budding photographer Steve Heer is the latest to encounter the gentle feathered friend. Heer wanted to practice bird photography so he headed down to the beaches of Okanagan Lake last week.

91裸聊视频淚 was there specifically to practice faster shutter speed shooting with flying birds. I generally practice with seagulls,91裸聊视频� said Heer. While Heer was setting up, Kevin came waltzing over.

91裸聊视频淎t first I was actually terrified because geese are scary,91裸聊视频� Heer said half kidding. 91裸聊视频淏ut as he got closer I recognized the wing and realized that I should dig up my camera and not be scared.91裸聊视频�

What makes Kevin so unique among Penticton91裸聊视频檚 geese is not just his broken wing but his friendliness with humans. He isn91裸聊视频檛 aggressive or hissing. He91裸聊视频檚 gentle and tame.

When Heer dug out his camera, Kevin was more than willing to pose.

This isn91裸聊视频檛 his first brush with fame after all.

Kevin became famous across the Northwest in 2021 when locals tried to rescue him from what was to be a brutally cold winter. Because of his broken wing, he is ostracized from the other geese so is not protected by a flock. Calls came in as far as Washington and Vancouver Island to adopt the famous goose.

A local animal rescue group even attempted to rescue Kevin but the Penticton goose had other plans. He survived the winter and has gone on to collect a host of human friends who visit him regularly and make sure he is well-fed.

For Heer, Kevin got so close he struggled to get a picture with his long lens.

But then Kevin decided to stretch his wings and Heer captured a stunning shot.

91裸聊视频淚 feel like it tells the story of him coming to show me his beauty, realizing I have nothing to give him in return, and leaving,91裸聊视频� he said.

Heer posted his shots on the Penticton page and soon he had 600 likes on his pictures.

Kevin not only has a following but he has his own day now.

Every Groundhog Day in Penticton is now Kevin the Goose Day.

Because the city doesn91裸聊视频檛 have a groundhog, the Penticton Western News decided two years ago that Kevin would be a suitable ambassador for Groundhog Day to see his shadow or not and tell us if we are getting an early spring or longer winter.
