Lost Buff Goose

[exner60]

My Buff Goose didn't come in tonight. I went out and found her dead in the pond. Not sure what happened.

Was there any blood as far as you could see?


And

it's good you joined!

 

[Sean S.]

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Do you think something was wrong, or a predator?

 

[JerseyGiantfolk]

It sounds like a hawk tried to attack, huh?

 

[desertdarlene]

I doubt it's a hawk. Do you have any other geese or a gander?

 

[Kevin565]

So sorry for your loss

 

[GUNNERMATE]

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I know how it feels. I have lost 3 of my geese the last couple of weeks to a cat. I caught one bobcat, but there is a big male that I have not been able to snag yet. I set new traps tonight using the body of my beautiful lavender goose that he killed last night as bait. I have my fingers crossed.

 

[tbitt]

Oh my goodness you guys, this is awful. I am so sorry to hear you lost your animals. That is so sad.

 

[exner60]

No blood, she was just floating completely soaking wet. I am wondering if it happened during mating. I had a duck a few years ago drown while mating.

Oh the poor goose . . . hope you can figure out what is going on. And hope that bobcat gets caught!
