By the way...there is no such thing as a Canadian goose (unless of course it was born and resides there). They are CANADA geese. And that concludes your ornithological lesson for the day...

Wow. I feel so enlightened.

an umpire and an aviarian. What a combination.

I just know a 34 inch goose barrel and 3' magnum shell on a full choked 12 gauge shotgun usually grounds them permanently. But they taste greasy all the time. Yuck.

Canada Geese are protected under the Federal Migratory Bird Act of 1918 . This Act makes it illegal to harm or injure a goose and damage or move its eggs and nest, without a Federal permit. Not complying with the Federal Act can result in fines ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 and this also applies to an untrained dog’s actions.

By Law you have to let Canadian Geese $hit on you!

Here in PA we have a few days in September we can shoot them. It varies every year how many we can take, but I have taken my legal share in years past.

Young Pennsylvania hunters will have two special days of waterfowl hunting, on Saturday, Sept. 15, and Saturday, Sept. 22. The Junior Waterfowl Days will be open to those 12 to 15 years old who hold a junior hunting license. To participate, a youngster must be accompanied by an adult, who may assist the juniors in calling, duck identification and other aspects of the hunt. During these two special hunts, juniors can harvest Canada geese, ducks, mergansers, coots and moorhens. The daily bag limit for juniors participating in the Junior Waterfowl Days is the same as for the regular season daily limit in the area being hunted. The only exception is when September Canada goose daily bag limits exceed the regular season limit for the area being hunted; juniors then can take the September daily limit.

However, waterfowl hunters should be aware that a new restriction on hunting hours will impact the junior waterfowl hunting days. On Sept. 15 and 22, hunting hours for all waterfowl species will close at sunset. For the remainder of the September 1-25 Canada goose season, hunting hours close at one-half hour after sunset.

I had a game a couple weeks ago where the field had a significant amount of goose SH*# in a couple of areas so I covered it at the plate meeting. Any ball contacting goose excrement will remain live until all action has ceased, at which point time will be called and a new ball will be thrown into play, but do not throw the contaminated ball to either umpire.
