Honk vs Honk
“We could just fly over to the other side.”
“And not disrupt traffic? No way. They built their road on our land, and we’re going to make them suffer for it.”
“They could just run us over.”
“They could, but they won’t. Humans would never admit it, but they secretly fear us. After all, this is our land!”
“We only flew in a week ago.”
“You know the rules. If we or any of our ancestors fly over a place, it’s ours forever. Humans just have to deal with it.”
“They keep honking.”
“So honk back! We’re geese, there’s no way some human is going to out-honk us.”
“There, we made it. I guess that was kind of fun.”
“Right? Watching them waiting, getting all agitated, worrying about being late.”
“Now what? Go swimming in the pond?”
“The grass is better on the other side, actually. Let’s just go back over.”

This was cute. We have lots of geese in Central Park that mill around like webbed shoppers. When you hear people complain about them, how they interfere with aviation, you just want to become their lawyer and say…they were here first.
I love when the head goose says…there’s no way some human is going to out honk us. Damn right. 🙂
