Geese

Last year we adopted two geese supposedly a couple called Horace and Dorace; after waiting and waiting alas no eggs appeared.  What we suspected turned out to be true and they were indeed two boys so they were henceforth known as Horace and Boris.  So we purchased two female goslings and had kept them seperate from the boys up to today as they didn't have adult feathers to keep them waterproof. Today they were released for the first time and they seemed to get on fine during their first swimming lessons and they were welcomed by the boys.

Yesterday Al caught his first Ragondin in his humane trap and swiftly dispatched it with an air rifle shot
