I once went to a big camping event at this lake that also served as the cooling water for a nuclear power plant. Don't eat those fish. Same situation, these geese have a much higher than normal level of metheroin than allowed by the EPA guidelines, more than 20 times the levels of your average free range goose. Your libel to just OD right on the spot if you eat a drum stick.

....my god man, now I know why they are so popular.

What we know about the new omicron subvariants from South Africa, UK
Health officials and scientists around the world continue to keep track of any new variations and variants of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Now new omicron subvariants have emerged in South Africa and the U.K., which have been detected in the U.S. at low levels. A new study suggests that some of the new subvariants may be able to evade immunity acquired from previous infections. Experts are keeping an eye on the data, but they are concerned that unvaccinated people may be poorly protected even if they had omicron in the first wave.

BA.4 and BA.5
New subvariants of omicron named BA.4 and BA.5 are sublineages of earlier omicron variants, but “what’s concerning about them is their arrival in South Africa coincides with a spike in cases,” said Seema Yasmin, journalist and professor in medicine at Stanford University, in an email to Changing America.

Ummm, I've only seen Canadian Geese here sooooooooooo...? Canada?
"Canada geese have a mild flavor that results in good eating; done properly, it resembles lean beef in texture. If they are not prepared properly, overcooking the breast meat is a common mistake, the meat can be tough and almost unpalatable ."

Then there are snow geese, all white.

"Despite what people say, snow goose is edible and tasty—if you cook it correctly. Big adult birds can be upwards of 15 to 20 years old, and they are challenging to deal with. Juvenile birds, however, are downright delicious."

They're catching and killing your birds :cry: they're so cool too, hanging out in huge flocks and are so beautiful. One thing about Colorado that's a + is the wildlife here..at Estes Park curly horned young bucks literally caught each others eye and I'm 50 feet away, scraped hooves and putting heads down ready to fight.

The last two in the herd were the ones. Males and a flock of females.

We are on a major flight path for the Canadian geese. Looked cool when they first started to hang out in the retention ponds but then they started hanging around parks and golf courses. Oh well, goose shit all over. Then some figured why fly north, got tasty grass and ponds to get your feet wet. And no predators. Then the next year more of them. And then more yet the year after. Would be better if they did not leave a mess behind. Cool picture. We have deer here, I think about a half dozen was the most I have seen at a time.

They destroy my lawn :(. If I don’t notice and their presents for more than 10 minutes there is shit everywhere and yes they taste like pot roast if done right. Very tasty.

First time I drove in to Estes I saw a huge ram and woke up to elk and mule deer in the yard. First elk I’ve ever seen, then we had to chase them away from our golf balls lol.

pot roast? i've eaten goose a few times, never tasted like pot roast to me. kind of like chicken and duck together...although these were from the store, not wild, so that may make the difference?

Sure does. We have some Spruce Grouse, they eat pine (spruce) needles. You are suppose to cook them in a pot with rocks. When done you throw the grouse away and eat the rocks. Maybe not that bad, but they are suppose to be bitter due to the needles. It depends when you get them also from what I was told.

Spruce grouse taste like a spruce tree lol. Ruffled grouse are delish injected with butter and coated with shake and bake :).

Wild goose is much different and has much stronger flavour. I love farm raised geese. Wild has to be cooked just right for me to enjoy them. I soak in buttermilk then slow cook the breasts with applesauce and covered in bacon strips on BBQ or oven on low heat.

The global free trade supply chain is dead and will never return in our lifetime. From now on things will be competing regional alliances and it will be a long and bumpy transition.
And if you want, just go back 4 years and you will see the beginning of inflated prices/shortages in the US.
Humm?
Let's see what happened then?
Oh, that's right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Asshole put a 20% "tariff" on Chinese products, not Vietnam/Cambodia/S, Korea
So, sure the Chinese are going to succumb to The Mighty Trump & say So Sorry (Chinese inflection :) )
Nope
They said fuck you & stopped buying American (ask a soybean farmer)
And the "Tariff" simply became a cost increase passed onto the consumer
Bingo!!!!!!!
Goods cost more & were harder to find.
Check it out, the cost of consumer goods & the rate of inflation since that curse upon Humankind started this shit with China.
Then the minor issue of COVID-19 entered the picture
A Perfect Storm for the American consumer.

FUCKING BIDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IF HE NEVER WAS BORN, THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SHE SHOULD HAVE HAD AN ABORTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and I'll bet it's been said.

Assholes
