      Still doesn’t seem like an even exchange for the Thrashers.

        Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

        In all seriousness, I feel like I’m risking MY life every time I walk through that lot. Those geese have no chance.

      Love the creative traffic calming! We’ll have to ask for a geese patrol for our Walmart too! :0)

      I came across these geese last week and then again this morning crossing at the same spot. I counted 20 of them.

      why hasn’t anyone gone back to eating goose? not saying they aren’t cute, but they’re slow and full of edible meat….

        Goose meat is quite fat, I believe. And I’d be curious about what kind of toxins urban geese ingest. On the other hand, they make a helluva mess wherever they go. Some places spend tons of money trying to control their numbers.

        On a related note…

      I have heard that Canada geese taste terrible. ( Of course that bit of knowledge may have been provided by the CAGOOSE PAC.)

        Are those Canadian geese? I figured that if they were on WalMart property, they must be Chinese geese.
