An interesting start to the day in Winkler Friday morning when a gaggle of geese held up traffic on Roblin East.

Kevin Oestreicher caught the moment on camera, "I had seen a couple of stragglers ahead of me and I had to slow down for them, but the big group just kept coming and coming."

Oestreicher noted that the geese caused him no serious delay while going about his morning routine. 

When asked about why the geese crossed the road, Oestreicher speculated that they were on their way to the Discovery Nature Sanctuary for a drink.

The Pembina Valley Online news team counted 73 geese crossing the road.
