A little too wild life...

I've been enjoying the sounds of geese and birds from the safety of my balcony for the last several weeks but today beautiful weather and enough time finally combined to get me outside for a walk.  I walked along the river and it was a lovely day for a stroll. Lots of other bikers, runners and walkers agreed with me. Everything was lovely along the river except for the geese. They were actually lovely too, looking quite plump and well fed, but they were honking a lot. I just walked calmly on by but they didn't seem to be after people. There were two geese who seemed to be having a territorial dispute and several others had gathered around to watch the fun. The two were jumping over and around each other and running at each other, honking all the time. I'm not a naturalist but I'm pretty sure this wasn't a mating dance.  By the time I had walked on  by no blood had been shed, I don't think, but now, when I hear geese honking in the night I'll be wondering are they fighting or mating or playing? I think when they fly by at midnight I'll assume they're partying.
