Is head shaking normal goose behavior?

[bel]

Our Sebastopol, Loudmouth, has started shaking / vibrating his head when getting fed, if he sees a handful of greens, and when looking at the dog. I don't think hes scared because he walks right up to the dog when shes near the pen then does this while making goose noises and the dog runs off (shes a big wimp and the geese know it). I think its mostly when hes excited but not sure.

What you are seeing is perfectly normal.
Geese will vibrate their heads when they are anxious, excited or about to get aggressive.

Thanks so much, I was a little worried since I haven't seen the girls do it but maybe Loudmouth is just more bold.
