I had lost a dear friend 6 mos ago I did the best I could and kept him going but no matter how much you try nature is nature now this was a goose I hatched and stuck by my side like I was one of his kind he marked me and learned about ponds streams fields where ever I went he followed now he's on that big pond in the sky looking down on me honking while I take care of his brothers and sisters I adopted some time after he passed the day he past he waited till the morning came up to me and honked so I picked him up and he nuzzled my face and passed away on my chest laying down hurt me allot but I learned one thing geese or any bird should be well taken care of because they feel emotion like us
