A Viewer Writes: Geese
Hey Joe...these 2 Canadian geese have been "perched" on the roof of one of the University Park apartment buildings since 7:40 am. Just wanted to share it with you and your followers. Not typical of geese. Have a great day.
They do this at the medical offices on Milford St. all the time. They are very territorial of the ponds there and honk loudly at each other when others intrude.
Not really unusual as more and more buildings are constructed in fields and near ponds they're used to visiting. The buildings are in their way. But they can use them to spot good nesting spots.
One good thing about geese is they mate for life. When one sees a goose formation flying there is always the V shape, with one side always longer. Has anyone ever thought about why? (ans. More geese in the other side)
For at least 2 years,buzzards would sit on a house directly across from the Wi Hi Admin offices.That never made any sense why they picked that house,because it was being lived in at the time and nothing was dead in the vicinity.15 to 20 would sit there every day.
I've seen the exact same thing at a house in my neighborhood. 20 buzzards sitting at one house day after day. Never landed on any other house. My girlfriend was convinced the guy was Ted bundy.

They are known to exhibit this behavior when the sh.t starts getting deep.
