[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 1105083, member: 5739"][b]Geese[/b] I love the goose reverse as well, in fact I have a goose myself, not a Canadian Goose though. However he looks slightly similar in some ways. He is actually a domestic African or Chinese goose, and has mellowed out now that he has gotten older, he still acts tough sometimes, and with a massive 7 foot plus wingspan, he could seriously hurt someone if he wanted to. They bite and clamp on with their beak, while using the top hardest part of their wings to batter you, and it is [U]very [/U]painful. Of course I also didn't know that geese live 30+ years when we adopted him...... I have noticed alot of the Canadian coins seem to have prooflike, or semi-prooflike strikes. I like them, and I always liked the 1967 series, especially the goose. Here are some photos of my goose with his harem of ducks. In the first one, they are cleaning themselves in the pool, while he stands guard, beautiful isn't he? In the second one you can see the male white peking duck looking angrily at the goose through the fence.... that male duck would attack that goose every chance he got, even though the goose would always beat him up and even ended up injuring both his legs so badly he was unable to walk, but even then the male duck still tryed to crawl towards the goose to bite and attack him.... I guess he felt protective of the ducks the goose hangs out with..... I need a female goose, but I must find a friendly one.... and when I got this goose I was 'assured' it was a female....[/QUOTE]
