Razzafraggin WIND!

After we finally got the geese laying (and determined the Embden IS indeed a girl goose, having caught her actually laying a few times) mum was just starting to look like she'd go broody when BANG... the wind rips the door open and off it's hinges (welded mind you!), which startles the geese and results in a stampede which results in goose-egg omlette.

Crappity crappity crappity CRAP! The joys of living in a very windy valley!
