Never forget taking my niece to feed a flock of geese when she was about four. We get out of the car and were stampeded. Tough to act like strong aunt when you're totally freaked out yourself. Thankfully we got into the car safely. (left the bread behind of course)

Kinda like my wife when she is mad at me, which seems to be most of the time.

Hehe-
haven't had that kind of fun since I was a wee kid and thought to try to ride my grandpa's big white barnyard geese hoping they'd like to join a game of "lets pretend we're the Lone Ranger and Silver". They didn't.

Geese are mean little buggers. I've been chased by enough when I was a kid. They would pinch a piece out of you with that nasty little beak and then flog you with their wings. I would run like the wind when one of them would start chasing me. I finally got a dog and they stopped chasing me.

I don't like larger birds at all. I used to get flogged all of the time when I was a child and had to feed the chickens. I had one old rooster in particular that loved to chase me down and flog me. I hated that chicken. I finally got my revenge though, Dad killed him and we had him for Sunday dinner one Sunday.
