Flying geese are twice as wide as they are tall. You could make them 3x6, and that would give you 3 geese along each side, but the geese would be much bigger than the block and kind of overwhelming. Or you could make them 1x2, with 9 on each side, but that might be more geese than you want. There are many possible combinations... Just be sure the height of the geese divides evenly into 9. (1"=9 geese, 1.5"=6 geese, 2.25"=4 geese, etc.) And don't forget that each corner you will have room for 2 more geese, if you don't want a plain corner.
