Don't know if it's true... (you read so much stuff on the net.) But Canadian Geese are the only monogamous birds around. And if a mate gets hit by a car or dies an untimely death in someway. His (her) mate will stay nearby until he (she) eventually dies. I thought that was interesting. And somewhat sweet in a weird way. (If not a bit crazy.) ID: 19801 · Rating: 0 · rate: /

Actually..knowing the area they are more likely to be on Crack. Theres lots of water in my part of London and they always seem to turn up just after dusk, spooky when you walk along a quiet road in the dark and someone says *blart* from nearby. There are many feral flocks of these very noisy things that come around in bunches of about 20 like demented starlings, mind you theyre very entertaining to see hanging upside down trying to eat peanuts.
