Goose update


It's not good news. They seem to have abandoned the nest. No goose in sight yesterday. I'll check again next week. They didn't even make a proper nest with grass.

Oh that's sad! Maybe they will start over in a safer spot. Poor little eggs look so forlorn!

That is sad news - you can't help but wonder what has happened to them to cause the apparent abandonment. I hope that they found a safer spot also.

Sadly I just heard a report on the news last night about all the recent bird strikes at the airports - with most of them being Canada geese.

I'm thinking they may have been young birds just practising and the eggs were not viable. Or else people are shooting geese for food now.

Oh too bad... I was hoping to see the little ones.

Cheryl said...

Any sign of the geese?

Priscilla said...

I'll check on Friday when I'm there next.
