Daylesford cries fowl: locals warn of Instagram backlash if geese relocated

Council in Victorian town to vote whether to re-home birds popular on social media, following reports of 'intimidating' behaviour

A plan to relocate a flock of domestic geese in the Victorian tourist town of Daylesford has drawn concern from some local tourism operators, who say the geese are a popular Instagram drawcard.

The Hepburn shire council will vote on Tuesday night on whether to relocate the 30-odd domestic geese, which have been living on Lake Daylesford in increasing numbers for several years.
