Default Canada goose in charge

I wish I would have had my camera with me. About 1.25 blocks from the entrance to Victoria Park, there is a parking lot. A Canada goose was standing on top of an SUV honking like mad.
There are many geese in the park. A couple of swans, and many mallard ducks. There is also a type of duck that's rare, that is not mallard. I don't know what it is.
I find the Canada geese to be not very aggressive towards people. They tend to shy away. Although I've had them walk behind me when I've carried groceries. They sometimes walk behind and lower their necks and start hissing.
Domestic geese(the white ones) are far more aggressive.
A couple of years ago, I read in the paper that a man was arrested for being drunk and fighting with a Victoria Park goose. That story cracked me up.
