State Police posted photos from a rescue mission in the HOV lane on the southbound Expressway in Dorchester, where a pair of geese and their new brood found themselves trapped today. State troopers and Boston animal-control officers managed to round up the wayward birds and get them to somewhere safer.

So I saw these geese as they crossed the I-90 W to I-93 S ramp, so my theory is that they walked in from around Kneeland St and jumped down onto the ramp, then proceeded to waddle down the HOV lane.
Also these geese almost caused me to rear-end the car in front of me. Thanks, goslings
