Fowl play on Richmond road

Feathered family takes a stroll through city during rush hour

There are many strange sights on Richmond's roads and none more so than a family of Canada geese.

Mother and father goose and their seven goslings were spotted waddling through the strip mall at No. 3 and Ackroyd roads around 8 a.m. Monday.

Richmond Chamber of Commerce's communications manager Matt Pitcairn spotted the family as he emerged from the nearby White Spot restaurant.

"They walked towards No. 3 Road then turned right onto the sidewalk," Pitcairn told the Richmond News.

"No-one knows where they came from or where they were heading."
