These deadbeat geese hanging out north of Bismarck don’t fly south for the winter. They’ve found warmer water near the refinery and power plant and have carved out a nice little niche for themselves here in our fair cities.

Some days you can find them in the corn fields south of Bismarck, other days they’re occupying a sandbar by the marina. Today they’re just hanging out in a field north on River Road. Why fly south when you’ve got all this?
