And that is no joke. We were once dive bombed by a swan while
riding in the dinghy, apparentlly having gotten too close to a nesting
area. It was like having a 747 coming at us at close range.
As the article says, ducks and geese will not mess with a swan. Of
course the so called "Canadian Geese" are a huge pest also, and
should now be called American geese since most of them haven't flown
north in years.
Both species should be targeted and destroyed...

or Asian carp or sea cow or kudzu or African bees or Dutch elm disease.
All part of Obama's plan to destroy America.
