RE: Egyptian Goose Spring Babies!

in #oc5 years ago

Those are some cute little geese!

I used to live on a big farm with a pond. We had some local geese and the Canadians that flew in over the summer. They'd stick around awhile and enjoy the nice Pennsylvania weather. One year, the Canadians had some little ones. The white geese, the native ones to our area, kidnapped one of the Canadians, and it started following them around. Any time one of the Canadian adults tried to take back her young, the white geese would chase them off. That young Canadian grew up to be one of the most loyal family members for the white geese. I'd never seen anything like it.

Sort:  

What a wonderful story and it must have been so great to see.
Especially as the geese and ducks always like to stick to their own.
Surely a very rare occurrence here, as I have never encountered it.
But then, the native Indian tribes used to kidnap white children and raised them as their own.
Maybe they also saw the birds kidnapping other youngsters?
Blessings and thank you!

It's quite possible. I found it fascinating that the young Canadian followed the American adults around. It was as if they actually thought the belonged to the white ones, which I'm sure they did. It was amazing to watch.

Oh, no doubt and I believe you my friend.
At times I think that we were chosen to see these rare events, but I have never been able to really decipher the messages, if indeed they are messages. Maybe we were just at the right place at the right time.
Blessings!

If there is a higher purpose in these events, I hope the higher power is delighted by the results. :-)

I am sure the He is my friend!
Have a nice day!
Blessings!
