Here's a bit of a close up for anyone wanting information on how to set up goose decoys, note the family groups and the singles and pairs working around the groups.

Note that most are wearing jewelry, we banded just over 30 geese here this last summer. Anyone know a legal way to convince them to leave and go to a huntable area?

You could always go to work early, set out a spread of decoys on the lawn, watch the geese decoy and yell "BANG BANG BANG" as they land. Your coworkers might not appreciate it but you'd be getting paid to hunt :)
 
I was amused at the "line" of feeding geese to the left side of the closest window in the "close up" photo. The one goose behind those "in line" made me think of a drill Sargent and his line of recruits.
 
I read some article that some students discovered if they sprayed grapefruit juice on the grass then it created a bitter taste that the geese didn't like and then would move on to another location
