Sense of a Goose - 20/12/2006 12:37
When you see geese flying along in the V-formation, you might consider what science has discovered as to why they fly that way. It has been learned that as each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in "V" formation, the whole flock adds at least 71 per cent greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own.
Basic truth No. 1: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going more quickly and easily because they are travelling on the trust of one another.
When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone - and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front.
Basic truth No. 2: If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those people who are headed the same way we are.
When the lead goose gets tired, it rotates back in the wing and another goose flies point.
Basic truth No. 3: It pays to take turns doing hard jobs, whether with people or with geese flying south.
Geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.
Basic truth No. 4: We need to be careful what we say when we honk from behind.
Finally - and this is important - when a goose gets sick or is wounded by gunshot, and falls out of formation, two other geese fall out with that goose and follow it down to lend help and protection. They stay with the fallen goose until it is able to fly or until it dies, and only then do they launch out on their own, or with another formation to catch up with their group.
Last but not least: If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other like that.
