| Just moved my geese into a different part of the orchard / garden. They are great weed machines.

| Very beautiful! It looks like the geese are on a discovery tour. What, may I ask, do you do with the eggs? My mother used to paint them, Ukrainian style. Great photos, Eric! Julie |

| Julie, This was the first spring they laid eggs. There were only eight. I left the eggs in the orchard hoping the geese would set. No luck, so I gave the eggs to my two dogs. Next year there should be more. Maybe as many as 35 eggs per goose. Eric |

| I love all your shots Eric! Konrad |

| I like those geese but I love those daisys. |

| Don't the geese eat the flowers as well as the weeds? I've always lived in the city, so I have no knowledge of such things. I loved the gosling in the plants. A very pretty shot! |

| Geese are almost like goats. I've seen them eat leaves, bark, roots, fruits and berries. So short portable fences around valued plants are in order. Eric |
