poem- eviction May 28, 2014

The ospreys

have reclaimed their

towering nesting boxes

evicting squatting

Canada Geese.

Their raptor eyes

study the horizon

and I wonder

if they raptured

over goose eggs.

.

.

A corollary to an earlier post:  

poem- real estate

One commenter was concerned about goslings hurting themselves falling out of the nesting platforms.  That was the least of their worries, apparently.

    Methinks the geese have their goose cooked! 🙂
