A pair of Canadian geese have made an unusual choice for their nesting spot – the Laval Courthouse in Quebec.
The geese, known for their loyalty and strong family bonds, have been spotted nesting on the roof of the courthouse, much to the surprise of courthouse staff and visitors.
According to courthouse employees, the geese have been nesting on the roof for the past few weeks, and have even laid eggs. The staff have been keeping a close eye on the geese, making sure they are safe and undisturbed.
The geese have become somewhat of a sensation, with many people stopping by to catch a glimpse of the feathered couple. Some have even taken to social media to share photos and videos of the geese and their nest.
While it may seem like an odd choice for a nesting spot, experts say that geese are adaptable creatures and can make their homes in a variety of environments. The courthouse roof provides a safe and elevated spot for the geese to lay their eggs and raise their young.
However, the geese’s choice of location has raised some concerns about their safety. The courthouse is a busy place, with cars and people constantly coming and going. There is also the risk of predators, such as foxes and raccoons, getting to the eggs or goslings.
To ensure the safety of the geese and their offspring, the courthouse staff have put up caution tape around the nesting area and have asked visitors to keep their distance. They have also reached out to wildlife experts for advice on how to best protect the geese.
While it may be an inconvenience for some, the courthouse staff are happy to accommodate the geese and their nesting needs. They see it as a unique opportunity to witness nature up close and to learn more about these fascinating creatures.
As for the geese, they seem to be enjoying their new home and are expected to stay until their goslings are ready to leave the nest. Until then, the Laval Courthouse will continue to be a popular spot for both legal matters and bird-watching.
