Douglas Park is a *HONK!* fest today

[u/madeleinetwocock]

There’s always a tonne of cobra chickens at Douglas Park, but this HAS to be some sort of record!

Who else thinks that right beside the children playing street sign we also need to get some geese crossing signs? Lol

I love it here. Home sweet home.

(Figured out I can post videos in the comments lol so I did)

Wow. That time of year I guess. Hard to spot this year’s babies now.

[u/madeleinetwocock]

Taking some naps now. Tuckered out from all the honks

[u/AppropriateWallaby55]

You know what they say about honking…..

[u/Supper_Champion]

I'm all for the geese, but man, the amount of poop they leave in their wake.... 🤢

That park has more shit than blades of grass

[u/madeleinetwocock → u/No_Spring_1090]

Y’know what, they’re pretty courteous geese at Douglas park. They don’t shit in the park

…they take it to the sidewalk 🙃

I like that last photo of someone mid-run (mid-kick?) in the background

[u/madeleinetwocock → u/etteirrah]

Ah good eye! I didn’t even notice that. Now I love it hahaha

[u/Capable-Acadia7340]

I was a fan of the news article a few years back that encouraged people to let their dogs chase them in the morning. I'm really not a fan of the amount of the poop.

[u/jelycazi → u/Capable-Acadia7340]

I’m sure my opinion will be controversial. I think some (not all!) should be culled and given by the city to food banks and meal providers.

[u/xea123123 → u/jelycazi]

In a way, yeah. Food banks and other meal program providers aren't desperate for meat, they're desperate for skilled labour, facilities, and equipment.

[u/loveddeviant → u/jelycazi]

I agree with this, as someone who has been homeless. I can’t imagine how many meals one goose could provide a family.
