Talking pooped on at 3,000 ft agl !!!!!!!!!!!

i was headed up to bartow FL this morning for a great bfast and laughs with some aviators when i was hit dead center in my vision by what i believed to be poop. yup, what else could it be. no feathers, blood, body parts. i was not sure till i saw the stuff slowly run back and stop before entering the cockpit. i survived and here is the poop or proof.

Just remember that at 3000' you are well below the service ceiling of a Canada Goose!
