Yesterday while cleaning the boat my wife and I heard several gun shots. We could see some commotion down and across the lake. I grabbed my bionoculars to witness a golden retriver getting two geese out of the water and the dogs owner with his gun on his shoulder giving the dog it's orders. The guy shot from his yard into the lake at the birds. The lake is only about 100 yards wide and there are several houses on the other side of the lake from this guy.

Are geese in season? And I thought they had to be inflight and not sitting in the water to shoot them. I am certain that there are laws about shooting so close to homes.

Amazing.
