    help with goose egg!

    It's definitely imprinted, if I talk anywhere it can hear me it starts calling. I just pulled out a box of little stuffed animals I've collected, it's always nice to have a few cheap ones in my "emergency box" the couple of times this has happened. The mirror is a good idea though, I hadn't...

    help with goose egg!

    really well! still a small distended stomach but it's definitely healing nicely and getting smaller, and in between the napping there's a lot of moving around going on. I ended up having to pull my second thermometer out, the whole cord kept getting pulled inside, probably looked like and...

    help with goose egg!

    ALRIGHT. so I've been doing a lot of birding lately for a couple of my classes, and I was way deep into the woods at one point when I stumbled on a nest at the very edge of a lake.
