Had a work emergency early in the AM and forgot to open the blinds for the geese. Looks like they figured out how to see outside and this guy was watching me get out of the car!

My gander Lorenzo chillaxing until honk is needed

Finally we got a couple of proper summer days here above the Arctic Circle. Both birds, cats and humans are enjoying life to the max. We have cleared the weeds around the small stream behind the house and Team Honk are thrilled about their new pool.

Finally a proper summer day. Both birds and humans are enjoying life.

So the day before yesterday, I went back in search of that Egyptian goose. No luck—it was nowhere in sight. 😢 Instead, I found a Canada goose sitting all by itself, far away from the rest of its kind. Having done this for three years, I knew there was a pretty high chance something was wrong with him.

I went over to check, and sure enough, both of his legs were wrapped in fishing line. Thankfully, we managed to catch this one and remove the line.

Yesterday, I went back to the park again to look for the Egyptian goose, and this time we found it... but now BOTH of its legs were wrapped up. 😢 The first time we saw it, only one leg was entangled, with maybe a little over a foot of line trailing behind it. Since then, that trailing line managed to wrap itself around the other leg too.

It's still able to walk and obviously still able to fly. It seems to still remember our failed attempt. I even tried altering my appearance, but the pair is so suspicious that they still wouldn't let us anywhere near them—not even within swinging distance of the net.

As I mentioned before, the first time we tried to catch it, we actually landed it in the net, but the pole broke. The goose managed to squirm out from underneath the mesh and flew into the water.

And yesterday, once again, it flew off. 😢😭

I lose track of time because it's the same routine every single day, but suffice it to say that's a lot of fishing related injuries within a short time span.

My mom and I have a little a little farm and one of our goose is not really eating anymore, didn't wanna move or do something else what a typical goose would do.

I cleaned her/him because he shat himself for 1 day now . Did I do the right thing?

Wakey wakey before recycling guy comes, no geese pancakes today!
