What a sweet little family.
Ask the geese not to invite friends to move in, though, or you'll have a mess of goose poop to navigate around surrounding your lovely pond.

How fun and exciting!

I believe they mate for life. There are babies around here as well.

MichelleSG said...

Yes, they mate for life. We had a bunch at a lake near where I lived in MD. At the vets office we'd occasionally get one that had been hit by a car (they were not that difficult to treat but strong as all get out). It was really sad when on occasion one would get fully smashed in the road and you'd see it's mate out there on the side of the road all day long, not able to get to their dead mate. It was awful. That lake was way to close to a main street.
Those gosslings are adorable!!

Oh, that is so sad Michelle. We have another goose couple that has been hanging around for a week or 2. We might have more babies!

Is the guy on the tractor naked?

Trailboss said...

Oh, you noticed that huh Lou. Yes, we are both naked. We never wear clothes at home except when we have company.

Actually I looked at the earlier and thought the same thing. Joe is wearing shorts only but the way he is positioned makes him look like he is wearing his birthday suit!

I was thinking the same thing about that picture. :)

Keep them away from turtles. They love to eat little goslings.
