Best Bird for Canadian Geese

[Ryan]

I wondered everyone's thoughts?

Rookhawk took his eagle for geese, but I haven't heard how successful it is. He said he also flew furgs(I think) and a Siberian Gos to some success.

i would think any larger falcon with good footing if they could get ahold of the neck or head it would be over fast and size wouldnt matter so much. idk just a thought

I know a person in Vancouver who is having great success using a male bald eagle.
Geese have mob mentality thou. If incountered as a group they will band together to attack the incrouching preditor.

try a african hawk eagle, but they do mob, so if you want to save your bird you have to be fast. i know jack hubley flies his golden on geese and foxes

A Canada Goose could cause damage to a gos with it's wings, so I would say a golden eagle would probably be the best bird to take them. Having said that, I have known some-one to have success at greylag geese with a large female peregrine.
