Goose in the Mirror

We lost one of our mated pair of pet geese. The gander, “Goosie”,  mourned his mate’s loss, and would honk and honk trying to call her back. We put a mirror outside his house. In the morning when he came out for the day he would run over to the mirror and talk to the goose in the reflection. One day a new goose came into our lives. She came in a big box. We opened the box with the mirror in front of the door. When “Goosie” came out for the morning he saw the mirror which we slowly lifted to show the new goose. It was love all over again! They had many babies! This is a photo by my husband, Ken Woisard.
