Geese eggs

When I got home from work today, I threw out some cracked corn for geese, there is another egg missing. So she is down to two. I assume the snake ate another one.

Could be another snake too most snakes only eat about once a week if they are eating good. But it's one way to get rid of the eggs.

I am freaked out by snakes - so I would like to think it is just the one. LOL!!!!

Okay the first one came back because he really likes to eat rotten eggs, hows that.

Final update on my mama goose...the snake came back and took the second to last egg, and that left the one. She sat on it and sat on it, until it finally broke open. It was a solid yellow mass that looked like a yolk when you hard boil it. She now stands and looks at the nest and then leaves for a while, comes back and looks and then leaves again...wash rinse repeat.

Hoping that she will try again at some point and that I can get her a better nesting spot (that she will use) instead of her going to a crazy spot again.
