Yes they are very safe. The problem is that the like to hang out on the edge
of the road or even in it. Every year a goose, a raccoon and a beaver seems
to get wacked on our road and a deer about every other year.
When I drove down the road yesterday there were four pairs of geese and two
seperate lone geese. The lone geese may actually been part of pairs where I
didn't see the other goose. I don't know If we have the pair back that was in
the pond outback last year. I haven't seen him walking around the lawn so I
don't hink so. I'm don't thing they are setting on eggs yet. but it should be
soon. There are also a pair of mallards swimming around.
