Canada Geese fly over my house in Rhode Island every spring and fall. They are flying In "V" formations (Hundreds at a time) just like our bombers in Europe during WWII. They "Honk" as they go. I think it has something to do with their breathing as they fly.

There is a book by....Can't remember who wrote it just now..called Chesapeake...where the author describes locals out on boats with small Cannons whacking 100s of geese with One shot as they fly.

This author also wrote similar historical books named : Alaska, Hawaii, and Texas.

Maybe bring that shooting practice back.

NB

PS: I think this practice was illegal even back then.

EDIT: Author was James Michener.
