[Leros]

Any guesses as to why?

Because they felt like it.

Mandatory: because the TSA banned them from flying.

Because the younger geese can't fly yet so it's the only option they have left to get around.

Goslings can fly approximately 2-3 months after hatching. I can't see the video... but what i've observed of geese... they barely leave the hatching area for that 2-3 months.. they usually don't go wandering.

My brother and I found three adult ducks walking through my neighborhood as a kid. Strange, because there's not even a lake anywhere nearby. We fed them and kept them. They liked our wading pool, so we sunk it into the ground and built a pond.

The 3 ducks all looked completely different. One was a Mallard (beautiful), another was a hybrid Mallard (looked more like Daffy Duck), and another was a white farm duck. We named them Bobby, Pesto, and Squit.

A long time later, some neighborhood dog killed Squit. We took the other ducks to a lake far away.

All the rest of the geese are trying to rape the shit out of the first goose. That would freak me out if I saw that. The ducks around here are Muscovy ducks and ugly and fat as shit. They waddle like fat lazy americans at walmart and if they do fly its like OMG that blimp is flying?!

It's Canada's air force in training.

We've got a bunch of gyroscopically stabilized chicken-to-air missiles too.

Canada geese are racist too. Known fact.

Dammit JIM! D:


Geese have a brain the size of a walnut. The smartest thing they do is fly South for the Winter. < rimshot >

 

[Iron Woode]

we got way too many of those damn birds here. They don't even fly south any more. They just live here and make mounds of poop. Everywhere.
