Paul, you take great pictures.

Each adult goose produces 1 to 3 pounds of poop per day, when 30 to 40 come visiting that can be up to 120 pounds per day in a small area. It turns an area into a slip and slide with gross consequences if you fall. While they are photogenic they are a problem. I think it's time for open season on them, let the people who enjoy them, enjoy them on the dinner table. They also can be quite aggressive, especially to kids or people who they know are afraid of them.

I'm not a big fan of deer either, 200 pound mice in my opinion, but other than eating my wife's tulips they are not a problem, they don't fill the yard with 100 pounds of poop.
