One morning last week, after very cold night, I was at Rio Shopping Center (Gaithersburg) which has a lake. Workers were picking up dead Canadian Geese and there were at least 20 of them (with pieces of ice still stuck). Some of them got stuck on the ice (body temp melts and freezes) and died overnight. It was a sad sight. [/quote]

I don't meant to sound cruel, but Canada geese don't belong here. They used to live in Canada in the summer, and fly south in the winter. At some point they decided to settle in DC, to take advantage of the golf courses and manicured lawns. So they stay here all year round. Kind of like politicians who come from the rest of the country to Washington to "clean up the mess," and then, after a few years, they don't return. They discover that feeding at the public trough is not such a bad deal. [/quote]

+1 Canada Geese are vermin like the Norway rats. Good riddance. [/quote]
