I haven't been back to the neighborhood pond for weeks, but last time I was there, he was the same old ill tempered demon. Words can not describe that monster. I would put him on par with that Freddy Kruger in the movie "Nightmare on Elm Street." Kelley (Texas) :shrug:
 
Kelly, the only other animal (fowl) that can deal with this type of goose, is the white swan and they chase them all over the place........nge
 
Mostly Canadian Goose and Mallard Ducks .. The Swans we may see, a couple of times a month.. Both species are very protective of their young.. From what I understand they both mate for life. I frequently see the meanness in the Canadian Geese, when feeding them bread. A male will always e honking, and when it chooses to attack another, they do not stop. They chase each other, snapping at tail feathers, and even when diving under the surface, it will follow.. They can be relentless..
One time, there were a family of Geese, in the high eel grass, kind of hiding the young ones. A family of Swans swam by, and the male,suddenly partly waddling/flying into the eel grass, and grabbed one of the young Goose, by the neck, swinging it like it was a toy, back and forth, trying to kill it, all this while the parent Geese were watching and squawking away. It was quite a ruckus .. After about five minutes, it let go, and continued swimming around the Cove, with its own family.. Boy, what a site, it looked as if, you put vise grips on that babies neck! It did live...
The Mallard Ducks, are timid, will mingle in the crowd, to get at the bread, but stay out of the way, of Goose and Swans...

duck pond has no natural enemies as there are no Swans living there. Well, guess what, he is fixin to get a new natural enemy called a sawed off broom stick. You folks are probably laughing, but you truly have no idea of how that monster has terrorized that neighborhood duck pond. Kelley (Texas) :shrug:
