Trojan Park's 29-acre Recreation Lake is a popular gathering place for domesticated geese and ducks. Some of them are very domesticated, and don't even flinch around people. In fact they seem to expect to be fed. They didn't even seem to mind the kids in the little toy car.

When I took these pictures, Trojan Park was not officially open yet. The park does not technically open until Memorial Day, and the park's parking lot was gated off with a sign that made that perfectly clear. But, that doesn't stop people from parking wherever they can to enjoy PGE's beautiful park, whether it’s open or not.

Here's a panorama of the Reflecting Lake from the other direction. The building on the right edge is the next stop on the tour.
