Shyoko and Aryeh came by to visit Mac & Fanny before
they go to their new home (with Dutch) on March
26th. We haven't seen them since last summer and
were happy to discover they are having a baby girl
right around the same time!
'Tis
the mating season and Mac is kind of love crazy
right now, but it was still a fun visit. Shyoko wore
a white coat and I think it made Mac think she was a
beautiful goose!
Fanny came over to eat lettuce too and of course
Jetti was right with her. Every now and again Joop!
would try to tell the gaggle to get away from the
humans, but they just kept coming back. Even Egor
came over to nibble at some lettuce. What a cutie he
is!
When we rescued Mac & Fanny, who came down the river
into their yard, we asked Shyoko and Aryeh if they
had named them and they told us "Mac & Fanny." Today
we asked what inspired their names and they said
they once had a pigeon family move in on their a/c
unit and they named two of the pigeons Mac and
Fanny. So the geese were named in homage of the
pigeons.
And my happy
Dutchy Boy...
