******************
Now that I look back, I have been chased by a considerable number of species. Be it pesty bees, malicious dogs, enraged cats, angry cows, grumpy goats … even chickens. Look I am an animal lover… love them to bits. But for some reason or other I end up on the wrong side of their Horns.
But the most dangerous of the species are Ducks and their cousins Geese. Mathematics wasn’t the only terrifying part of going to School. The terror started even before I could reach the bus. There were a bunch of white Geese waddling on the road, with puffed chest and sinister looking eyes, waiting for their next target.
Sometimes I would let other children pass so that while they are being victimised I could sneak away. But everyday wasn’t a sunny day. There were days when I had been chased non stop by this quaking family of greys and white. Probably the ducks gained more confidence and power by looking at the Geese, scaring the living daylights out of the human kind.
Yeah childhood was sure fun when an enraged elongated Goose was almost my height. 😛
Along with Claire, Parul and Shalini we have formed an Unconventional Alliance with A to Z co-host Pam Margolis as the ring leader … all set to rock the party

Thoughts…Sushree
I run away from animals like a goose runs away from a bus! I'm just scared of them. I just start squealing am act like a proper idiot. Now you can imagine how I would look if I were to be kept in your situation :p
Good going, Rajlakshmi 🙂

Good Post from the memory lane. Loved reading it.
Yes, I agree ducks are crazy but so yummy to eat! 😀 I think Must be auite a scare to find them each day.
My dad was bitten by a swan! Imagine what he was doing while going to school, he held this one poor swan by it's neck and it bit him bad. LOL
Geese are birds with a very strong personality, loyal to their master like the dog and yes, they're pretty aggressive too.
I'd be really scared if I had such aggressive geese waiting to bully me on my way to school.
Loved your take on D 🙂

I still remember being bit by a Goose when I was really young. Probably one of my earliest memories. To this day, I don't get too close to them. They're mean!
