On Friday, March 10, 2000, I was going to Michigan Avenue along the walkway between the Chicago River and the Sun-Times building. As I got close to the Wrigley Building, I noticed a goose posturing in the water and a couple of sea gulls flying around.

Then I saw something that amazed me...on a wooden piling adjacent to the Wrigley Building, there was a goose and four or five eggs. She was next to them, making adjustments to the nest (see arrow at left).
