Explanation

A 'gaggle' is the specific collective noun used for a group of geese, especially when they're on the ground. When geese are in flight, they're called a 'skein'. The other options refer to different animal groups: a hive is for bees, a barron isn't a standard collective noun, and a litter typically refers to young animals born at one time.
