You can get a big fine for killing these annoying birds.

How bout accidentally killing them while pretending you are cutting wheat in your yard, then accidentally plucking and cooking them with a nice pudding on the side?

How bout for crapping all over your lawn and deck?

Firecrackers, maybe?

And let's make sure we are all on the same page here - geese are PROLIFIC crappers. We're not talking a pile here and there.

Think slimy green turds. They are like giant pigeons here and won't even get out of the way when you are driving or walking. It looks like a battlezone after they leave an area.

And when it rains? Think of a slippery moss-covered rock. Your whole yard covered with them. Except they aren't moss-covered rocks. They are piles of guano. And they have the consistency of soft serve.

Go chuck the eggs in the lake!

goose won't attack you, just hit them back!

Actually, geese are pretty aggressive. Personally, I'd shoot the little bastard and serve him up fresh for dinner, but if you don't have a shotgun handy or choose not to kill it, the dog is probably a good second choice.

If you don't like my previous sugestion you could always make friends with it. Keep feeding it bread and what-not and soon you will be able to get close enough to brain it with a shovel.

So... you want to kill an inocent bird that follows its instincts just because your urban upbringing has taught you that grass should be two inches high and no more. All I can say is 'wow!'

Do you realize that it is you who's encroaching the birds' natural habitat?

A few years ago, a South Carolina university professor had casually remarked to me she's never seen a pig in her entire life. That's just great.

Leave the bird in peace. Let it hatch its eggs. Watch the goslings. See how the family ewvolves and they migrate. Then you can go and mow the lawn, and destroy the nest, so that they won't return to it, and next year you can just keep an eye out and make sure they don't come back. If you have kids, thay can watch, and get a real lesson about nature. Even if you don't have kids, you can just hang around and have a beer while watching the little birds learning to swim and to fly.

Anything else and you're less than human.

As for the rest of you advocating things like Seltzer... I hope you never have to find yourself or a loved one in a situation where you're dying in pain - like in a car accident - and you get surrounded by morons who can only laugh and point at you.

grab the eggs when the geese arent there, then throw the eggs at them. Then, after that and when they're really mad, use the shutgun
