The Official Status Update Thread: Part 41 - Tomorrow Never Dies

[Westside]

I learned something new the other day.

We have a bad geese problem on the lake, especially on the waterfront where our pier and boats are. Goose crap where people walk in the grass and on the piers. We have put out strobe lights to keep them from nesting at night but that didn't deter them during the day. A few weeks ago a pair of white swans moved in and the geese slowly left. I haven't seen a goose in about a week.

From what I have learned, Swans don't like geese, will attack them and even try to drown geese.

I like swans all of sudden.

Me too. Its amazing that 2 swans would run off a hundred or so geese.

Swans don't like anything! there was a pair on a lake up here last year that would attack people in boats! and drown a dog!

Most of them floating, some of them running and the others are just hanging around.

Nope. All I've heard is they are fine shooting rifles.
