Canada Geese are so stupid!

We were out goose hunting yesterday.
We get a nice small flock to commit and kite in.
When they get within range we start unloading at em. So the majority decide to fly off. But one of them sees 2 dead flapping around and decides to land again...he just had the expression of "What's wrong you guys why are you flying off".....I never gave him the time to realize his mistake!
Then it got a little slow for a bit. Some high flyers, nothing low enough to come in to our decoy spread.
Then as we are about to pack up a group come over the corn and decide to come in. So we shoot at them through the corn and manage 2 (shooting through 12ft stalks and up isn't easy!).
This flock decides to circle around again!?! But when they do a flock member goes into cardiac arrest and dies!!! We were laughing so hard! We got 1 goose free! No wasted shot and no shot damage!
All in all a good 3 1/2 hrs and 6 geese to show for it!
