We have another goose friend in peril. He has some heavy green fishing line wrapped tightly around his left leg below the joint and it has a wicked little stick attached too. The plan is to catch this guy and get him some relief before all circulation is gone in the leg. It is a two person task and I must wait on help.

Today a touch of cabin fever set in. A broken leg, radiation for cancer and some very cold weather have kept me pretty well housebound except for necessities like church and haircuts. So, it warmed up a bit and Teresa and I go for a walk. We take my normal geese path and there were six in the water this late in the day. We stopped and looked a couple a minutes and then walked on and they could no longer see us. Suddenly, we hear a take off and here comes a goose out of the water and lands back in the water near us and immediately jumps out onto the shore honking away. We turn back toward him and stop within a few feet and as I talk he calms down but never goes back to the water. I looked at his webbed feet closely trying to see if it might be Luci that we rescued last year but there were no holes in the webbing so either it was all grown back together or it was another goose. Whatever, it was a nice walk and goose visit.
I have been observing my goose friends and have some new twist to add to my book Goose Freedom. I will be getting serious about writing again beginning January 16!

I'm a wanna be writer but until recently only dabbled with personal stories and illustrations. My true joy is my relationship with God and family. Then comes the Christian music and technology. I am retired and occasionally work part time but when not too occupied I'm writing a book that I call Goose Freedom. Archives
