I would have loved to have had those wing bones!  (that was you that took the shot?  I thought it was Dave Cartmel)

Watching the flock circle one afternoon, comments were exchanged over 
actually hitting one in flight. 





Um...OK, I'll admit it. I did actually try a shot 
at them in flight. Just once - couldn't get that thought of roast goose out of 
my head.


They were flying at about 50 feet, but I still 
didn't realise just how much lead I needed to give. My arrow passed well behind 
and I could swear I saw the back one stick it's tongue out at me. Easier by far 
to net them or catch them on the ground with a bow.





Chris.
