Don’t go near their nesting areas when they’re raising young. Canada Geese are some of the most brave, loyal, committed lifelong pairings of animals on the planet. They’re beautiful, too. Don’t bother them and they won’t bother you. People, predictably, love to trap, gas, slaughter them en masse for the pettiest HOA type nuisance pretexts. It’s hard to think of a species who wakes up every day and chooses violence toward other species more than humans. Small animals run from the sound and scent of us faster than their usual predators. We’ve wiped most wildlife off the planet. And cage and torture domesticated animals on a staggering scale and to a sickening degree of violence and suffering. So, no, Canada Geese are pretty sweet and harmless actually.

I used to work with a great horned owl affectionately known as “psycho”. He was actually a sweet heart though.

[@brigidtheirish]

Someone who did animal rehabilitation once did a presentation for my class in grade school. He had a great horned own on his arm and a bald eagle on a short perch near the floor. The horned owl kept staring at the eagle until it suddenly decided to lunge right into the eagle's face! Great horned owls are big, but bald eagles are *bigger* so it looked pretty crazy. The eagle just sat there, completely unmoving as the rehaber reeled the owl back in. I think "psycho" would've been an appropriate name for that owl.

Crows also mob other birds of prey. If the bird of prey is similar to the great horned owl’s look, then the crows chase the bird farther. However, if it were to be a Cooper’s hawk or something that has brighter, distinct plumage (that resembles it away from the great horned owl) then the crows only mob it for a while. Edit: other

[@kolorsoftherainbow4295]

Yeah, it usually depends on the circumstances when it comes to Cooper’s hawks. Our neighborhood flock of crows occasionally bickers with juvenile Coopers, though they do have their moments of coexistence. They are also fine with vultures flying around the area (as scavenging b.o.p., vultures don’t have the feet or talons for hunting, so they’re not much of a threat to crows), but with most other raptors, it’s on sight lmao
