Geese retiring to the country

Kathryn Graves, Policy & Projects Officer at the town council tells us the geese-rehoming did not go quite according to plan. Five were relocated to a farm, but the others can no longer go to a wildlife rescue charity. However, the farmer who has taken the five says she will be able to take the remaining 20 or so birds with friends and family, so all geese will eventually be retiring to the country. Watch out for Bob Ayres and other Parks & Premises officers trying to round up the remaining geese, or let the Town Hall know of any hints for quick catching. The muster may be done in gradual stages over the next few weeks, or all in one go, probably within the next month. See previous post.
