Hello.
Well today afternoon, I drove to Bass Pro Shop via Hwy 400.
About several hundred meters before the exit to BPS at Hwy 400. I noticed that all of sudden there was bout 2 or 3 geese starting flying across hwy 400(N) right from the shoulder of the highway at ground level. It happened about 100meters in front of me. I just knew that something crazy was going to happen.
It felt like it all happened in slow~motion~... as those big geese started flappin' they wings and seeing few cars just drove by fast enough to miss them. Yet there it was... big 18-wheeler coming at them... trucker did kinda thought about hitting the breaks &/or turn lanes but it wasn't an option as there was several vehicles around it.
Next thing you know... kapow! Splat! Smack! Blood! Two geese got clipped by the front of the truck than got ran over by it's main wheels and trailer wheels... It literally made the truck trailer kinda jump?bump up.
Next thing I see is geese head just being torn off from it's body and smashed to the road and other one was as bad of a mess. Yes it is sad but it was very cool & neat to watch :?: .
All I thought at that momment was... Thank God it wasn't a passenger vehicle that smashed it because it could have very well caused some serious accident on the road.... than again I don't know where those chopped up geeses rolled to... vehicles coming from behind might have hit it.
Hope no car & human got hurt.
Sorry dumb geese for taking off right across the high 400 at ground level.
This also remind me of another geese attack I saw few years ago at Highway 404. There was a geese flying over the 404 but there was one of those hawks? of whatever bird chasing and attacked the geese right on top of the road!
It litterally attacked it's next and I could see geese next just going limp instantly and falling toward the middle of north & south bound... that grass area. That was very neat to see aswell.
Sorry geese, you are no match for bird with claws.
