I had a goose chase after me once and I am certain it was not trying to kiss me.

I feel you... some are just protecting there nest or have had bad interactions with humans, but not all are bad. It takes a lot to earn a goose's trust, plus temperament has a lot to do with it. Some animals or people just have a more aggressive temperament than others. I feel blessed thou to have such a wonderful animal and cherish every day I have with him. Thanks for the comment and I hope next time you come across one the interaction is better.

Does he make that soft chortling sound when he kisses you? Mine did , almost like a whisper… and a trill combined. Nothing like goosey love.

Yes, I would say he is the most loving pet I've ever had. I'm glad you got to experience it as well. Here is a video I posted https://www.reddit.com/r/geese/comments/zq2qzk/riggs_was_in_a_cuddle_mood_today/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

They mate for life ya know…and they never let a gosling be an orphan, so you know… you might be a dad …for a looong time. Mine lived maybe 15 years? He would love on all the women who came to our farm and he would wait for a guy to pass and then run after him and bite him ( or try to ) on the calf, twisting as he clamped down to leave a red welt raised up half an inch with red dots as the capillaries were damaged. How did he know a woman from a man …everybody dresses in pants basically. I don’t know…but he did

Yeah I would say I'm his mate even thou he got raised the same way with his girlfriend Lorna and I raised several ducks the same way in the past, but he/Riggs has been the best I don't know either how he is able to tell the difference. Especially when me or someone else is all bundled up for winter wearing a face mask. Bonus baby picture https://imgur.com/Uiv0eRO

My neighbors had a goose that used to chase me home after school and it was the most terrifying thing

Kinda looks like your whispering.

Makes me think of that Ben Harper tune “I always have to steal my kisses from goose, always have to steal my…”
