As a waterfowl hunter of 0ver 35 years, I can tell you that Canada geese are very tasty if prepared correctly. I like to use the crockpot. NH has a September season that starts right after Labor day to try to control these burgeoning native populations. I strongly recommend against shooting them without proper licenses and stamps, and then only in the proper season. It is a federally controlled bird, like all migratory birds are. The fines are stiff.

You mught befreind your local waterfowler and provide him or her with a suggestion of a place for the September season? As an aside, many waterfowlers have well trained retrievers who might be useful in keeping geese away - not sure, as I never tried to use my dogs for that.
