Good piloting too. One slip up and the drone's goose would have been cooked.

Hard to believe there are some Canadians who aren't totally infatuated with Canada geese.

The Dutch are having much the same problem with mute swans. They're overrunning the country in some
places. Busting the eggs does little good, mama just lays more. So they find the nests and drill a
small hole to bust the yolk sack. Keeps mama on the nest for months. They're laws prohibit the
shooting of the things also.

Here's a good article on the problem, from Minnesota DNR. Note the speed at which the population is
increasing in the great lakes states.

They're fouling the Chesapeake Bay also.

We know one Canadian who is infatuated with a silly goose.
Too bad Harry cant be more like a mute swan sans the poop.
