A Different Type of Honking in Greenwich Traffic


The honking you might hear in traffic at the Greenwich-Port Chester border isn't the typical car and truck horns.

Oh, you'll eventually hear those horns being sounded by drivers impatient that traffic is stopped on West Putnam Avenue and Byram Road. Yes, there's a stop sign at the intersection.

But at least once a day a gaggle of Canada geese brings traffic to a halt as about two dozen of the plump birds waddle and honk their way across the road.

Mid-day Tuesday the geese performed their routine...a single-file parade from the triangle-shaped median to the hilly lawns of the former Byram School that's now the McKinney Terrace senior citizen complex.
