fabs,
It's my understanding that it's just as it is for us. The mated pair go where the female wants to go. She picks the house, the pair go to a location somewhere close to where she was born. Have you ever noticed that geese leave the nest area almost as soon as the little ones are capable? The adults take them away from the nest they use to keep them from returning to their nesting area. I was thinking I should have done that but I had 2 boys and, yep, they went where the wives wanted. Strange how that works. When you have children, if you have girls, maybe you should consider moving when they're off to school..???LOL
Also, I guess they go 2 years as non-mating pairs before the actually mate and have chicks. Kinda like living together and playing house. More like humans than we thought.
