    Questions about a pair of male geese…

    I guess I’m just trying to seek alternatives. Perhaps I and they would be better served by moving them but I’d miss them. And I’d really worry about them. I’d almost bet they’d end up flying back here even if they were re-homed. I wonder?

    Well, I’d be willing, but these boys can fly. I don’t think I could build a fence high enough

    Questions about a pair of male geese…

    No… I’m not a Facebook user and I don’t want someone to take them and turn them into stew. Once they’re gone that’s it…

    Questions about a pair of male geese…
