     He walks with the ducks. He acts like a duck. He thinks he's a duck. Gallagher hangs out with our flock of ducks because, well, there is no other goose he can hang out with. originally, grandma Maggie got two geese, but one ran away, and Gallagher was left with the ducks.

     He began to waddle around with them because they looked somewhat like him. They had pure white feathers, and made what he thought were funny noises. They didn't have the heart to tell him he was not a duck like them, but they liked Gallagher the Goose anyway.

     every morning, they were all let out of the pen to walk around Triple B farm and forage for food. This was not difficult because Grandma Maggie always left plenty of seed and even leftovers from her plate for them to eat. Sometimes they had a feast! Yesterday, they had leftover chicken Cordon Blue, the day before that was spaghetti and meatballs, and today looked like pieces of ham and cheese sandwiches. Yummy!

     I used to be able to pet Gallagher, when he was really little. But then i got busy and Grandma Maggie told me, "if you and i don't handle them gently everyday, they won't remain tame for long." Grandma Maggie did her best, but even she didn't have time to handle Gallagher every day, so he slowly became more attached to the ducks rather than to us.
