December Geese

[Jim Boyer]

A few days ago, "the pond" was iced over. Then we received a long, steady drizzle and above freezing temperatures. After scouting one day.....there was nothing flying and no "visitors". The next day five geese showed up in the afternoon. Today looked like the last day........if they flew.

Daisy and I were setup by 7:30 am and home in one hour. Wow! There were geese everywhere.

"Daisy's first goose was easy."

"The second looked simple, too."

"Oops.....it's a cripple!"

"The fight's on."

"It's Not Over."

"Finally!"

Dogs retrieving live geese are the BEST retrieves ever.

Takes a veteran dog to tackle live geese. Not sure I would want to do that myself. Great work!
