A Few Boats Will Be Reassigned After Goose Takes Up Residence on Docks in Cobourg

In Local

While Waterfront Staff were conducting the Spring dock assessment from water last week it was noted that a nest with a female goose sitting on eggs had been built on B-Dock.

With a very supportive male tending to the nest it has been decided to reassign a few boats away from this slip if time requires to give this family the best chance possible to grow into the water.
