among other things it's in a windy spot; a few times past week, branches/nest materials they'd started nest with blew off; no way this is safe for eggs (and chicks)

I really want to get rid of the geese; you're hired! Contacting county natural resources department to figure something out, tho goose now 'sitting' probably means she/we'll let them hatch.
