All Good Things Must End

Summer is in its final stages. It is hot in the sun, but in the shade the cold lurks. I see geese collecting in park and fields, getting ready for their long journey. People seem to hate geese, especially Canadian Geese. When checking my Google Analytics, I find people coming to my site with search terms like "Kill Canadian Geese" or "Get rid of Canadian Geese" or Hate Canadian Geese." Now, more people looking for the above terms will come to my site! So all I can say, if they read this is, WTF?

So geese are big and they tend to eat a lot and deficate. I can understand farmers concern over the geese, but there are many methods for scaring birds from crops. If the fields are fallow, then the geese will help keep the field fertilized as they gleam the last of the crop. And in parks, the geese dung is good for the grass.

We do all have to learn to live together. There are just under 10,000 species of birds in the world and 10% of them are endangered. I have been writing about bird and human interactions for orato.com under leannej. Check it out.
