We could use more of that here in NoVa.  Damn winged rats (the geese, not the eagles).

That's not a goose.

Note the longer neck and black beak - I'll say "Trumpeter Swan" for $500, Alex!

Still, I wish our local eagles would do that to our local Canadian rats geese.

I do my fair share of harvesting Canada Geese in the fall/winter.

There's a bunch of Canada Geese here that are year round residents at one of my favorite fishing spots.

Nasty little sob's, they try to steal my daughter's lunch. She'll open, say, a bag of potato chips and the little bastards will mob her, hissing and chasing her. I blame the idiots feeding the damned things.

First one that actually clamps down on her is going to go through the uprights just like a field goal, game & fish dept. be damned.

Looks like it is trying to make the first American Bald Swan.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

"our local Canadian rats geese."

I beg your pardon?

You're accusing them of being illegal aliens?

How do you know that they're Canadian?

Have you checked birth certificates?

Passports?

Pshaw.

Most are born in the United States these days.

They're Canadian-American geese.
