How bad shot do you have to be to miss one?
I'd miss them.........I never hit a goose this year. Maybe those "reloads" my buddy made had no shot in them????

In mid september a fellow from South Africa and I visited the D.U. project on a piece of property I own. The pond is 38 acres with 5 km of shorline and several islands. It is also on the migration flyway. You could not see the water for the number of geese and ducks on it.
And there are no words for the sound of large numbers of ducks and geese flushing - the rush and roar of the wings beating is incredible. There were flocks leaving the pond constantly for the half hour we were there and it was a steady roar of wings beating.

Watch out
Yup, full rain gear with goggles!!!!!
That thing'd thin out yer average flock in a hurry,LOL.Apparently,that's a stock SX3,the only mod being the mag extension.Looks some fun though.
You don't sound like an ass, you just don't have the picture to back it up.
Right on.rlg,
Draw a north-south line directly through the town of Ste-Justin-de-Newton and I'm about 40km's south of there. Quite possibly the same flocks (skeins?) we are seeing.
Have you ever ran out into the flock, it's fun.
I know, it is still amazing the size of those flocks and it is very likely that the three of us have all seen the same flocks from time to time.
I know that this will sound childish, but when my son and I are driving around and see a huge flock, we often get out of the car and run out into the field. Then we stand there immobilized in absolute amazement as part of the flock (sometimes the whole flock) rises into the air. The sound and sight of it all is awesome.
Still a kid at heart

Just a nice normal flock of snow geese for Saskatchewan, or most of the prairies for that matter. Here is the view from my front step, October this year- about 40,000 snow, blue and ross' geese less than one KM from my house. They stayed around for about a month. Had some good shoots, and ate a lot of geese!

Now you know why they're called "Tundra Maggots" !
They stick around until they've eaten themselves out of
house & home. Seen this in the St. Lawrence(QC) and around
Hoosier, SK
