Duck, duck, goose!
Oh, my. I'd hate to see what you consider obnoxious. ; -) Grazing
geese defecate a lot, frequently, and it's mushy and it smells and it stains. (They've got a caecum full of bacteria which help them digest grass; this makes them function like little web-footed cows!) I once had the nasty job of hand-weeding a daylily bed in which a gaggle of Canada geese had been lounging. Ugh! If geese become tame enough to come up on the porch and say howdy, you will be hosing off the porch on a daily basis. I like geese, but I don't like cleaning up after them. Maybe your ick threshold is higher than mine. Monique in TX flick wrote: BTW, goose doo-doo is fairly unobnoxious when their main diet is grass. |

Maybe your ick threshold is higher than mine. (emphasis mine - flick). Quite possible; I tend to compare anything's doo to kitty or dog, which are much more obnoxious IMO. And I have dogs, so it's a firsthand comparison ;-). flick 100785 Monique in TX flick wrote: BTW, goose doo-doo is fairly unobnoxious when their main diet is grass. |
