Fiji, a 'kill' is a leftover from when the Dutch settled the NYC area and the Hudson Valley up to the Albany area.
A 'kill' is a Dutch word for creek or river, as I understand it.
You'll only see that term in the eastern parts of NY State.
More and more geese stay in the area now, as compared to say, 30 years ago- as long as there's open water, there is a significant resident goose population. Also, Fiji, I'm sure you're seeing some geese traveling the eastern flyway.
