It's the weekend...and dark. I hope the Rescue is well under way...sending all sorts of positive goosey goose rescue vibes your way.

I really wish that you had read the whole thread before making a one sided comment about the intentions of the OP.. I am soo glad that your park takes care of their birds but seeing as these are dumped feral geese then the city does not own them.... Maybe finish reading before sticking your foot in your mouth....

If someone dumps geese on my place, I own them. What's the difference of the city owning them? There are some GORGEOUS muscovies by me, and I want them really badly, but I kinda think I would be stealing if I took them.

Thats your peception of it .. In my mind if someone illegally dumps domestic animals in a public place then it is my responsibilty as a concerned animal lover to save that animal from possible predation, sickness..etc... also at the same time protecting the Native (i.e..supposed to be there) animals as well....

Bleenie, if I was back up there I would help you in a heartbeat.

I have to agree: Those are your long lost geese - what a shocker to find them at the local park.

Bleenie!

So relieved to hear you found your long lost pets!
They need your love and attention to thrive and survive.
How wonderful you found them!

After reading all over the internet including here, I'm really glad I accepted Josephine's voluntary retirement from her own city park life. I can't imagine what might have happened to her if she'd approached the wrong person and taken one of her goose nibbles to them. I really don't get people dumping pets. I've had a parakeet as a pet who flew in the window of a friend's house. They had parakeets and we guess Poco wanted family. We put out ads in the paper but who knows if he escaped or got turned out. People are creeps sometimes.

So good luck on getting "your" pets back, Bleenie!

I just wanted to point out another side to this. I agree with all of you on the dumping thing and I'm rooting for Bleenie. You also after remember that if it wasn't for people like Bleenie picking up after other people the laws would be way more strict on what you can own. I mean look at the Muscovy duck issue. They are trying to outlaw you as a owner being able to own them...Why? Because of all the so and so's that insist on dumping their extras, they are destroying environment that wild animals need and they breed like rabbitts(I love my Muscovys

). I say GO BLEENIE! I really wish I could help you. I'm waiting to see what happens so please hurry and give us an update.

Arwen,
Josephine was waiting just for you.
Birds are smart that way.
(I have parakeets too, and maybe they arent as smart as geese!)
