i prefer mine cured or smoked....mean sunza bitches...

I like them, very tasty. In Norway we only have wild geese, and in the past 5 years, the number has increased quite a lot. Good news for a hunter....

I have a stuffed goose on the wall of my computerroom,some people are afraid that it will fly of the wall.

I'm always inclined to say they are horrible but they are only defending themselves. We have geese at college and there was one particularly nasty one called Wendy who had been hand reared by one of the technicians but she used to chase people and she pecked my friend Gina's bum All you had to do was maintain eye contact and walk towards her and she'd back down.

Never heard of goose hats but my comments for the beaver hats apply here - the animals/fur/feather/scales look better on it's owner rather than a human.

I wasn't meant to walk this world without you - Kelly Clarkson - Maybe.

they scare me .. what are geese hats like?

Every blade of grass has its angel that bends over it and whispers, 'Grow, grow.'

Hate them, they are just bloody aggressive!

Follow the cloud that looks like a sheep!

I was making fun of Jenny's beaver hat.

there is no such thing as a goose hat. ( well maybe something with geese feathers? oh wait that is a pillow.

And i agree shiver..

I like goose cooked the Norwegian way with fruit and aquavit it's deadly.

As for them living their fierce bold. I'd one attack me when I tried a shortcut
across a field, I was all of 5, and the big fecker never forgot it, I cheered the place down
when the eejit was run over, I wanted Da to roast him for dinner

Well, I'm a vegatarian so no cooked goose for me.. but I still hate them.

and if someone else ate them I would say go for it.

I have never really had much contact with geese but they look nice

Poor wee geese.

If so much hated - then I'd like to know why? It's not as if they are lying policticians, cheating husbands/wives, criminals and ya-call-wot... Perhaps they know just who to annoy and at least they're safe from vegetarian pots & appetites...bless the vegs.

Anyone ever tried goose-a-la-orange? Just like duck a la... The orange of course can be replaced by plumsauce too. Yummie. Those flavours...

During my many stays in Kiltland (I have a permanent fling with the Scottish Highlands) I became more aware of the large flocks of Egyptian geese. They like to rest for days by the lochs, before continuing their long flight. We have a pair here at work, that likes to plonk in the swimmingpool and quack-quack from time to time until the extremely bass & noisy hadidas and dogs come and spoil their fun...

Cheers for now.

Just like with people it really depends on the goose.

I live on a river and they come up in my yard all the time to lay on my bank, plus i feed them sometimes. they can get aggressive if you get to close, but i have had some geese eat out of my hand more than once. but they are messy with their droppings. that is the worst part for me.

Treat em nice. geese are people to.

I can only please one person a day and today isn't your day. Tomorrows not looking to good either !

Thanks for the nice input, Evenste.

We all need a little place under the sun & feeding them...no wonder the geese love you!!
