Rare... but they existed.
Their increase is due to the build out of habitat that suits them and a reduction in the predatory threats.
We also have environmental controls that reduce loss of eggs and young; as we no longer spray with certain items that get into the lakes and food supplies.
So better habitat and less predators equals more geese.
The problem is the lawns.
