Default I Hit a Goose Tonight

okay, so tonight i was on my way home and i was on a 4 lane street. i was in the right lane doin about 40mph and all of a sudden i barely see something small and gray so i try to stop and swerve but i saw it too late and it. I stop and go back to see that it was a Goose. :( i feel kinda bad cuz its not like a squirrel or anything small and not as common. as far as i could tell it didnt do anything to my car since i think i hit it mostly with the wheel but i think the front bumper might have a mark on it, it was too dark to see or take a pic. i wonder why it hadnt gone south yet...

It probably DID go south already.Canada geese from your neck of the woods would end up in Texas or Mexico, and geese from further north end up in your area...

Geese are a PITA!

I enjoy chasing them and almost running them over.....next time though I just might have to....

too bad they are nationally protected...would be fun to shoot at.
