When I let the geese and ducks out in the morning, they now head, vociferously, straight to the dogyard. They seem to have it in for the dogs after our so-called harmony day the other day (end results of this are another story).
Look how determined they are on their way to tell the dogs who is boss around here. Godfrey’s head is missing from the photo – sorry about that – hehe! Well he bit my hand tonight and drew blood (another another story!)
Of course the situation is reversed in the evening but I have to say that the dogs aren’t quite as loud.
It looks like they are never going to be compatible and I was silly to try. Oh well – live and learn!

Hi,
They certainly look detemined. 😀
Yeah, they have that ‘I’m gonna give you a talking to’ determination – it’s hilarious!
Simply Awesome!!! Loved it!
They are so funny! Thanks for the comment!
your welcome!
There are places where they geese as guardians instead of dogs because they are more effective! They can raise hell of noise and be extremely aggressive as a gang. I read that somewhere. I believe in prisons, in surrounding buffers.
FYI
They look kind of scary as well.
Only Godfrey – the others are as gentle as lambs!
What a feathered army. The geese mean business!
Army all right!
“don’t mess with us!” LOL! 🙂
Especially Godfrey!
This story made me smile.
They are definitely funny to watch – very interesting dynamics!
Love the photo.
Thx!
How disappointing! Look forward to hearing more though…
Yes, very disappointing – back to the drawing board!
I once got chased by some geese when I went too near their nest. Quite scary!
I am chased every day by Godfrey but the others adore me (I think that he’s jealous!)
Strength in numbers!
Definitely!
It’s like a three ring circus! Margie
More like a ten ring circus – hehe!
That is one serious looking parade!
Yes – they definitely mean business!
Hmmm… maybe Godfrey blames you for the ruckus and the dead hen? My geese like perfect harmony and will not tolerate any insubordination on the premises. They will go over and “break it up” every time. Maybe that is why he bit you so hard today? I’m sorry he got you. 😦

And he and I used to be so close!
looks like you have muscovie geese.Use to work at a guest ranch and my boss raised them and exotic chickens. Jane
Did you mean ducks? We have two muscovy ducks but the geese are sebastopols and pilgrims with one fierce chinese gander – Godfrey!
At first I said ducks then crossed it out-forgetful. Godfrey is quite the character.
I thought you might know something I didn’t about geese (like I thought maybe there were muscovy geese) – didn’t mean to sound cheeky! Godfrey is a fiend!
Phew – it’s a jungle out there, Julie – that goose at the back has a make-my-day-dawg look in his eye
Ha!
