Wait until these geese start carrying avian flu into the country. They'll be killing them in droves, worse than the passenger pidgeon.
I have just written a letter to my state senator asking for legislation that will allow the destruction of the resident goose population which will be the greatest vector for spreading avian flu to all of us. They crap in every park, schoolyard, golf course and yards everywhere. One goose produces up to 2 lbs of poop daily. The people who have died from the bird flu are those with exposure to bird poop. The bird flu will soon be here and the geese will be the agent for spread!
