Watching over the family

A parent keeps a watchful eye over a group of fluffy goslings Sunday, May 31, where the Paul Bunyan State Trail crosses over Excelsior Road in Baxter. Families of geese are often seen along the roadside in Baxter as they return to nesting spots. The young feed themselves. Their diet is almost entirely plant material. They can't fly out of the way of vehicles as it will be about two months after hatching before goslings try their first flight. Kelly Humphrey / Brainerd Dispatch

Growing up in the Brainerd lakes area I realized that I never wanted to leave, so it is a true blessing that I was able to find a job at the Dispatch doing something I love. As a visual journalist, I work in the mediums of photography and videography to bring our readers everything from sports, hard news, weather and local events to slice of life documentation of our coverage area.
