Officer James Givens has served with the Cincinnati Police Department for over 26 years, but has never quite experienced anything like this before. He was sitting in his patrol car in a parking lot when he got an unexpected visitor. A goose came up to his car and started pecking on the side of it. He threw food out for her, thinking that’s what she wanted, but she didn’t take it.

Apologies for the "He Couldn’t Believe What He Saw!" part of the title. I hate teases like that. But I didn't want to change the title in any way and get in trouble with the Mods.

Anyway, this is a nice little human interest story. No politics here, and no Russians.

I was in convenience store one day when a lot of geese gathered at the front door. it was obvious they were hungry so a couple loaves of bread later, a few got fed. Man, there were a lot of them. I probably could have gone through 25 loaves of bread easily.

What the Peck !

There’s a squirrel that’s been coming to my door for the past year and I feed it bread sometimes. I hadn’t given it any in a while, then I saw it chewing a hole in the screen of my window, and it got into my house after tearing off the tape I put over it...now it holds me hostage for bread.

It’s like welfare: once you start feeding them, they start to feel entitled to your stuff, and get pissed if you don’t continue to feed them.

An internet Mother Goose story

[RegulatorCountry]

I wonder how many people are going to get nearly flogged to death by Canada Geese after seeing this video and thinking they’re harmless? They’re honestly nothing to be trifled with, they can hurt you. I never realized people from Cincinnati sound so southern. Right on the KY border so I suppose it makes sense, but never realized that.

They’re evolving faster than we are.

I want to know how the mother goose knows to peck at the patrol car.

That’s like me trying to get the knots and tangles out of my wife’s necklaces.

You’re right about that. Even domesticated geese are serious animals. As a child I spent some time on my grandfather’s farm. I learned early on to stay away from the geese.

I’ll bet the cop had fed the geese in the past, so the cop was already known to that particular goose.

I've always been amazed to see how intelligent birds are. I have had a number of pet birds and they understood much more than I ever expected.

We tend to assume that we are the only brilliant things out there and that everything other than us is stupid because we don't understand their language.

She saw the "Protect and Serve" sign.
