When they do mate it's for. life even if one partner dies. He was also very surprised to find that in the winter the geese do not like to be kepf''inside. Once he tried keeping them in his barn but they constantly strutted hack and forth until he finally let them out.. "One winter he,,' had a hig mother goose that was setting on her six eggs. The snow con- tinued to fall- until only her head was not covered.. Mr. McClinchev knowing she would not move, went out to feed her regularly. Finally, the eggs hatched and five out of six sur- vived. Recently, Mr. McClinchev sold 13 pair of geese to Wien in Winnipeg, ' Toronto and Crediton. . He feels the number of geese sold to various pc'ophe last year will just about . pay for the pond. This very interesting "hobby" however, will always remain as such according to Mr. McClinchev. Although genuinely in- terested and caring for the welfare of these great birds, he feels it is everyone's respon- sibilitry to protect our dwindling wildlife and1 their environment.
