Geese’s gender

Usually the males are bigger with thicker legs.

the almost whitish heads are females, the yellowish heads are males same goes with mallards

i couldn’t tell from a distance if any had yellow but i’ll check in the morning,

Do you have any pictures of them when they were younger?

sadly no, unfortunately i was worried about having Canadians because they’re illegal without a permit and didn’t know if i could get one, i talked to some people and finally got a permit for them so i started showing them off a little bit

I wish we had more people who liked geese where I live. They're in the local parks. Instead of finding humane ways to control them, they rounded them up last week and took them to a meat processing plant. The meat went to the local food pantries, but still.

in the city due to the lack of predators nothing eats them, and from what i hear geese have tremendous homing skill so they’d just fly right back

Very true. They're going to try to use dogs to control them somehow.

Cute, but you know these birds are built for impressive migratory flights, right? Do you plan to encourage them to join normal flocks?

the dnr is aware of them being with me and i have a permit for them but keeping them around isn’t part of my plan i have a pond where there’s 20-40 geese all day most everyday and i’ll let them get a tad bigger and let them go so they can have a better life
