Here in the Ohio valley, we are over run by Canadian geese every summer. I work part time taking care of 15 acres. There is a pond there. Every year Canadian geese domesticate the premises. They hang out around the pond. They are beautiful creatures but, yes PETA , I did say BUT.....they SHIT everywhere!

They have a favorite tree to hang out under. The grass is matted from goose poo. It looks like a ceremonial circle of shit. They then hatch little pooping gooses and the circle turns into a fort of defecation!

I tried using a gas horn to chase them off. They are either deaf or the male thinks it is a mating call. I tried chasing the off with a golf cart. They just spread out and ignore me. The male dose give me an "I can kick your ass look!"

I can't walk ten feet around the pond without stepping in goose dung. The entire property has become an annual vacation spot for these Canadian feathered tourists.

Thought I would try my shotgun....you know...Canadian...French...run. They flew off! Two hours later they were basking in the sun by the pond. I guess they didn't believe my blitzkrieg I haven't seen them for a couple of weeks now. They must have flown home?

Why can't they fly to Florida like all the other Canadians?

What do they eat that makes them poop by the pound?

Do Canadians feed them laxatives before they fly to Ohio?

Are the Canadians practicing to invade the U.S. with a goose poo poo infested with a virus that makes us want to be enslaved by rude Canadian tourists?

Are Canadian Free Masons teaching those geese to annoy us while they take over our country?

ARE WE BEING GOOSED?

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !

Easy, Tommy...Funny hub! Friggin' geese are the worst. Not only are they shitty, they're quacky or goosy...Whatever...NOISY then. I use to hear them outside every morning like they ran the joint. Peking Duck, anyone?

Great photoshop BTW!

They don't fly here to Florida because they are bullied by all of the SANDHILL CRANES...

I know what you mean. We have a pond in Upper Marlboro by the county administration building. Someone thought it would be good idea to have geese in the pond. Now the walkway is full of crap but the geese are considered county residence and can't be touched.

Hey! Don't be sending anymore Canadians our way. Just kidding, in West Virginia they were a welcome sight on our ponds each year, but then it was only about a dozen or so of them nesting.

I think Deece was on to something there. And I agree with your thesis. The Canadian Masons are giving them laxatives. I have heard about this on the conspiracy channel.
