That's neat! I did not realize the goose could become so tame. We have a pond nearby with tons of them and they just hiss at us ... unless we are giving them food.

We got her when she was newly hatched so she imprinted on the family. From all the research I have done, they make great pets if you get one when it is young.

Any stranger approaching would be set upon by this small flock, honking and hissing and flapping those wings. People would run like, well, turkeys. They were devoted and gentle with the immediate family. I would love to be in a position to be around them more.
great photo.......what adorable sweeties
Oh their little yin/yang faces! :heart:
There is a flock of geese that lives on my campus. They have their goslings twice a year and I can hardly stand the cute. There were days this past semester that were so crazy-making and the only thing that got me through was being able to take a walk around campus with a camera and take pictures of the geese.
Oh, and my boyfriend has been informed that there will absolutely be a goose in our future, and he's fine with it. Yup, I knew he was a keeper![]()

Another member of the family. We got her when she was two days old as her mother was hit by a car near the ranch where my daughter rides horses... My daughter named her Ariel Sparkles Fluttershine
