GENERAL NOTES.

Geese are foragers.

The season for breeding is only short from May to October they are exceptional parents

with both goose and gander protecting the nest and the young when hatched.

 Geese should be avoided during this time as they tend to be aggressive but its only the

protection instinct. Never run from a goose as they will know they have you bluffed
