History Of Now 14-Year-Old Homer The Beloved Goose
By PAT MAX

The last several years the Los Alamos Daily Post has had several stories about Homer, and I thought folks might like a little more information.
I’m probably one of the few who still has it because it’s all in email that I have sent to and received from various Los Alamos County folks from 1997 to 2012.
The story of Homer the goose at Ashley Pond began in the late fall/early winter of 2006 before Homer hatched when the aerator pump broke, the pond froze, and the ducks and one goose were subjected to life threatening conditions. Eight ducks were rescued. The remaining ducks and the goose disappeared.
