This is all that's left of the Gulf Harbour Geese...
I'm dumbfounded. In the early hours of this morning my partner and I witnessed the disgusting "pest control" commissioned by the Gulf Harbour Country Club. For roughly an hour and a half, between 12am - 1:30am, two cowards circled around the large pond seen from Gulf Harbour Drive on a quad bike, shooting any bird in sight.
Obviously impressed with their abilities to shoot slow moving targets in the dead of night, they then proceeded to camp out on the golf course with a small fire - in what one can only assume was a romantic feast for two on harmless and native birds.
Anyone in the area would be familiar with the abundance of Pukekos, Gulls, Oyster Catchers and Geese. The morning was eerie with the absence of birds. What's left of the Geese is shown in the picture - about 75% gone.
In what country does bird shit on a golf course constitute that bird being a pest? How the hell is this extreme measure able to proceed first with no attempts otherwise?
