Canada Goose vs bald eagle

[argonsagas]

I have a 12 gauge................wish I could take every one of them out I can see.

I, too, have had thoughts like that, although I do not own a 12gauge, or anything else.

There is a public park that backs onto the schoolyard where my children go and it is not unusual to see forty to fifty geese on the grass.

No, not today, as the grass is under the snow, but that is melting and Spring is near.

the most I have counted was seventy.
Their excrement is maddening, but they are a protected species and we are not permitted to harm them.

Protected here too, protected species and why for such a nuisance whos populations aren't in danger nor decreasing. I've never been impressed with goose poop around our lakes, and this protection just keeps making it worse.
