A domestic goose who resides at the Riverside Cemetery in Iowa, has found a new beau after 'searching' for love through a personal ad that was posted on the cemetery's Facebook page.

The Indiana Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division shared images of the goose nestled into the frozen sand in the Indiana Dunes State Park on Dec. 26, 2022.

Staff at a burial site in Iowa took to Facebook last month to search for a partner for a resident goose whose significant other had died. On Feb. 10, the Riverside Cemetery in Marshalltown, Iowa, posted the"personal ad" on behalf of Blossom – a"lonely, widowed domestic goose," who was seeking a"life partner."

In August 2022, Blossom's former partner, Bud, had been killed by a wild animal, the cemetery staff wrote in a post.Since Bud's death, those at Riverside Cemetery noticed Blossom's behavior change, so they decided to help her find a new feathered friend. Blossom is pictured in this image, staring at her reflection in a shiny gravestone."Come share life with me at Riverside Cemetery, where you'll enjoy swimming in the lovely lake, good food, numerous friends, and peeking in the door of the office building at the strange but kind humans there, who feed us lots of goodies," Blossom's personal ad, which was posted to Facebook stated.Three days later, staff found Blossom a new domestic goose partner.
