"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

This is probably a really stupid question but I have never given much thought to it until now, what do you Americans call Canadian geese? Seeing as how we used to have 6 months of winter up here and they spent half the time flying and living down south for the winter, did we just get first dibs on the name? sorry I literally have nothing better to do at the moment  ;D

Trading in migratory bird parts is a good way to get yourself in trouble with the US Fish & Wildlife Service.  They cannot be bought, sold, or traded.  If legally taken, they can be gifted under certain circumstances, but there are also local regulations you should be concerned with as well.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

I may be tempted to simply call them nikag.
