No, but there has been a  different suspicion.

... if laughter is the best medicine, I'm going to live for a century more at least ...

... that odd braying sound in the distance is me, in pious audio imitation of a chicken laying a paving brick!

Why Canadians are wary of Cobra Chickens  Canada Geese.

[Eyesa Horg]

Had a couple swans chase me once on a lake when I got to close in runabout! It was less than amusing!

[Alpo]

That's the real reason they don't let people carry guns in Canada. There will be dead Canada gooses everywhere.

 

HE WAS COMING RIGHT AT ME!!!

[Brazos John]

We used to live right next to a rice field that attracted migrating geese in the fall, in Katy, Texas, West of Houston. Thousands of them. We could hear their wings flapping when they flew over the house. 

There were no goslings at that time of year, so we were safe.

Katy was known for excellent goose hunting, and farmers made lots of money leasing their fields to hunters. 

Now, the whole damned area is subdivisions and Walmarts. 

Progress, right?

They call it ice hockey to differentiate between it and the game of Field Hockey played in places where they don’t have ice!!

 

There’s also roller hockey played on roller skates and a hard surface like a parking lot or a basketball court.

 

Both of those regimens assert that their game is just called hockey as well!!

.45 Long Colt

......................................................................................................................

For those that missed the joke, it's a throw back to the thread where folks were getting heated about whether there is such a thing as a ".45 Long Colt" or if there is only a ".45 Colt".  You know, "There is no Ice Hockey, It's just Hockey".

Much funnier now, isn't it?

Clarification

[Alpo]

How about when you strap a couple of boards to your feet and slide down a mountain covered with that cold wet white stuff? People insist that that is simply called SKIING.

 

But here in the South we know better. That is snow skiing, to differentiate it from water skiing.

Some of those blasted honkers have taken up permanent residence here in Middle Tennessee!!

 

Several local ponds and at least one major city park lake have small to medium flocks of ‘em that stay year round!!

 

One local farmer has a pair that spends most of its time with a flock of domestic ducks!  I see them wandering around every time I drive past his place!!

SHOOT EM !!!!! 

[Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474]

When I was a kid and lived in God's Country* my Father and I could start hunting ducks and geese, in August, under a No Limit, Provincial Pest License, issued to farmers. We were "hired" by the farmer to shoot migratory birds off their grainfields. The only stipulation was we could not hunt within 100 yards of any body of water or slough.

The birds would have raised their hatchlings and would be flying with them, into the grainfields, doing thousands of dollars damage, destroying far more than what they ate.
