Well when I say goose, I really mean gander. So unless I've been sold a mislabeled or very confused bird, I doubt it's off on a nest anywhere! They're Embdens, which I was told don't need to be clipped, but as a precaution I may clip the others just in case. Seems a bit strange that on its first flight it would get any further than the next field, don't you think?
Will get on the case at first light tomorrow!
