History was made at Burbenska Farms on Sunday November 27th, 2011. Surprisingly, a canada goose has never been shot since the property was first purchased and developed for waterfowl 25 years ago. We see our fair share each year, and have had them flutter over our duck decoys but always when they are out of season. For some reason or another though, we've never taken the effort to purchase and put out any goose decoys. Some friends of ours provided decoys to use this year and that's all it took.
Had six passing over our pool, and as soon as they got downwind of our calling they made a hard turn to take a closer look. They were nearly motionless as they glided into the 20+ mph winds toward our spread for what seemed like minutes to cover only 50 yards. The group left on the second pass but this fellow glided on in and gave us a gimme shot just above the decoys.
