minus-squareJelly@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up10·2 years agoOne time, I was walking along the sidewalk next to some geese. They were so close that the intrusive thoughts won, and I tried to poke it. It hit me with its wing and left me with a nice bruise :(

minus-squareWindex007@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·2 years agoI’ve heard stories that their wings are powerful enough to break an arm… But I’ve never heard first or second hand of that actually happening. Considering how much denser our bones are than thiers, it always struck me as a risky proposition on their part to hit us that hard.
