Sounds like you guys down south are in for some fun.
Flipping heck...the dogs down there must be right shitters...ah, the media...
"Faeces from (Canada geese and) dogs had also been linked with the estuary's poor health."
The sewage from all of Christchurch ends up in the estuary and they think the problem is a couple of thousand gooses?
Geeses:)

Some fantastically illogical deductions made in that, ... umm, ... you couldn't even call it an article. There is so much wrong with the world, the answer is orange!
None of them start with Y
unfortunately the CCC is driven by customer demanded ecological ideation.this is a new problem -fuck no -its been going on since pre earthquake times.Ispoke to a work colleague recently who has a mob of 50-60 sitting in the avon river opposite his place .offered me beers ,a deck chair and space on his front lawn if id bring the .22 over and teach em to stop crapping on his grass verge .very bloody tempting that i tell you. iwas also tod by DOC officials ,suppressed .22s were used to clean out bottle lake at burwood which was infested with Canadas!:wtfsmilie:
Anyhow ,take heart -the CCC has formed a committee to decide on a course of action(read a ratepayer funded bloody great talk fest by local body officials who assume theyre important).I think her worship:slow: comrade lianne should front up in her socialist red bikini with camo hip waders and prowl the area ,giving all those errant birds a homily on what theyre doing wrong.
why -cause polis talk as much shit as geese fire out ,if not more!:thumbsup:
Well - this is how all that sh*t gets started - six on the water today
http://i1059.photobucket.com/albums/...uff/0381-3.jpg
now T/O thats gonna be six prime eaters if ever i saw em .ho in when the times right -lashings of onions gray and mashed spud ,with plumpyoung goose breast -cripes a man could fart well on that.
i doubt the geese swan and other waterfowl combined could match the shite spouting capabilities of stuffed sewage infrastructure and councill sub committee inspired crap talking.
you can probaly set you watch by ecans band wagon climbing ;)
well i was cruisin out that way yesterday and the bromley poo ponds had waves ya could surf on .out &about 3-4old swans all of who seemed to be makin tough going of it!mongrel easterly was colder than an anacondas grin.:sick:, but i did pick me up some more warm camo gear .
was gonna take the binos to look for her worship, the mayor comrade lianne in striking red socialist bikini with russian tigerstripe camo thigh waders ,but (un)lucky for me i forgot em!Imagine the size of the goosebumps through binos let alone the puppies!!!!!:o
Only five prime eaters now Kotuku - but they look to be doing well along with another pair and their four young - also living with a pair of Parries and their three young

all good tucker providing ya nurture them fella.Me old dad used to reckon a plumpflapper parrie was the best eatin of all.actually these parent geese dont look that old either.
We have a lonesome goose that must be 20 years plus living in our creek. Bet that bastard would be as tuff as old boots.Attachment 31302
ya could be right dundee.if those bloody strainer post eels you keep showin us are givin him a wide birth .
or how come we have empty guns and only 2 dead gooses
:thumbsup:or muzzes snoring spooked the gooses
the only thing sadder than a lone mallard hen is a lone canada:XD:Quote:

Sorry guys, but the offshore pipeline has been back in action for a few years now after the earthquake(I had to help locate it for the dive team inspection in mid/late 2012 - put the shotline right on top of the diffuser too!). While some will get into the estuary, currently this would be less than 1% of the total outflow of the plant(seepage).
NOt sure how many dogs shit is Forsyth though, heard the perch fishing is going off out there anyway!
I guess if CIAL read that article, they might want to consider if their money has been well spent.............
Sadly it's still leaking out of all the broken pipes before it reaches the treatment plant.

Send them this way, I love Canada goose meat, I rate it better than Venison and that's saying something.
She isn’t sad or lonely - but she doesn’t look that motivated to nest - I just can’t find mallards with ducklings round here
http://i1059.photobucket.com/albums/...uff/0331-1.jpg
These were not lonely or motivated to breed either
http://i1059.photobucket.com/albums/...uff/0381-4.jpg
The only birds that I see round here that are motivated to breed are Canada’s and Parries - four pair of Canada’s and goslings and one pair of Parries with three young on this wee sediment pond now - wow - they can grow fast -

Seen the first four canadian geese in the local district tonight ever. Apart from the lonesome one that lives at the creek have never seen them in the wild before. Good times too come I hope. Seen a few on the town settling ponds last year but seeing them this close to home rocks!:cool:
Did have to stop the vehicle on the way to town again tonight as daisy duck and her followers crossed the road.:)

Im reliably informed that the lakeland subdivision park pond in hallswell has more geese on it than arses and hangers on in a kardashian movie.
probably a bloody sight more useful too.
Gsp follower -temptation suggests an undercover visit with "widow maker" eh what
Branta canadensis urbanisus.
I always thought that after a city was destroyed it would become inhabited by zombies. After having lived though it I now realise they are inhabited by gooses.
How far up the North Island have the geese gone? I saw three tonight in my travels.
not long now till the young birds drift back fom the high country where hopefuly a good number will miss the moult culls:ORLY:
was over the east side of chch the other day and decided to tikki tour the avon via avonside drive on me way home.:O_O:fuck me -ive had smoother drives on the rakaia riverbed!:x_x:
anyhow just before the fitzgerald ave bridge there is a stretch of the avon which is home to 3-4 very large mobs of rudely healthy canadas:ORLY: whom i swear gave me the collective brown eye and a "f...you "honk as i drove past with dentures grinding in frustration.:thumbsup:
oh hell yeah theres no flies on our metrosexual new age gooses,obviously they know what FF and cull stands for.:brzzzzz:
now Dundee old chap if you could flee the palace of tit pulling for a few days we could hopefully show you a new version of tits up as another canada bites the dust!
shit one of our shootin mates (c404)whose had a hell of a time over the last 2-3yrs with injuries&surgery ,even bought himself a 28g and bugga me announced his return by droppin two plump fat honkers on his first outing.made my bloody weekend to see the bugger with the grin on his moosh i tell ya.
thart old buggger youve got on the farm -he resembles gsp follower when im in the maimai with him.... would ya be as kind as to whip out and enquire does he know a grumpy tubby ex shepherd bugger whose moved to shakey town or thereabouts .if the bastard hisses or eyes you up like a scrub bull about to charge you'll have hit the nail on the head.
Do not attempt to smother him in watties and toss him on the hot plate .you must ensure hes gone to the great grass paddock in the sky first.
geese generally have a piss poor sense of humour!!!
Cheers got a laugh out of that but me like button is broken.
well apparently boys the tomtoms have been humming round ellesmere and it seems another well known spot was relieved of 200 odd geese recently:pacman:. its close to one of ours which apparently has had a fair old population of ferals/canadas having the annual munch squawk&shit fest.:yaeh am not durnk:
You guessed it -another visit in the offing and it sure as shit aint social.:o
Im feelin like a new stallion in his first service season -fully loaded &bring em on.:thumbsup:
Can people exercise dogs in that area? Reads like the Council (or someone in council) wants to stop that, they always find some way. We have it in my area, council whinged about dogs on the river bed whilst 4WD and those 3 wheeler bikes made huge mudholes. At least the beer bottle smashers and burn out car crowd seem to have lessened.
