No mater how cute people think these birds are- the facts are that they have seriously overpopulated, to the extent that they are causing problems all over the U.S. They have caused numerous issues with airlines- including 78 recent strikes with aircraft in New York. The Center for Disease Control Atlanta confirm that Canada goose excrement is laden with potentially dangerous bacteria, some of which are resistant to bactericides(do you want your children exposed to this?). I say feed the poor!
Problem = urban sprawl. Loss of habitat is causing explosions in one species (ie: Canada geese), and die offs in others (ie: Pintail ducks). It seems the only people protecting waterfowl these days are hunters... go figure. Yuppy animal lovers keep plopping Star Bucks on wetlands. :(
