They're getting uppity

The birds around here have got it good. A couple years ago I was late to work because I got stuck behind a Canada goose. A goose that wasn't crossing the road -- no, it was sauntering along, in my lane, right in front of me. I flashed lights, I honked (it honked back), I got within inches -- nothing doing.

A goose I can almost understand. The geese around here are no longer migratory. They seem to prefer waddling around to actual flying.

Today I had to stop and wait for a robin to cross the road.

That's it -- I'm getting a gun license.
