My guinea fowl (male) is in constant pursuit of my brown hen (Mrs Brown).
I have not decided if he hates her and is an absolute bully or he fancies her.
She doesn't want to be anywhere near him,
Do guinea fowls have an any port in a storm attitude

poor little Dingbat landed awkwardly on his tail, so he had a sore bum for a while to remind him of the experience. He was only 12 or so weeks old and they were bloody big noisy geese. It was a good thing he hightailed it out of there because i wasn't gonna go in after him. They scare me silly

Lenny (channys mother) had a big he man bull terrier, you know, the no brain no pain muscles on muscles type.
Lenny and her 'minder' went into the back paddock to bring up the horse and apparently walked too close to the dam.
The massive goose came charging out of the dam and directly for Lenny and minder dog.
Lenny said she had never seen minder dog move so fast. He was behind her trembling in fear in a flash.

Sorry about your guinea fowl, cm. Bluddy neighbours, should mind
their own business. What harm did they do? They sound like they would be
good to have around to get rid of those egg-eating snakes IMO.
I'm with pimpy on the geese though. They scare the living bejeezus
outta me too. They stand up straight, as tall as you, stick their chest out
and start flapping and charging. I knew a big man who got bowled over
and ended up with a broken collar bone from those bluddy geese!
