I've heard that about swans as well. They don't waste much time.
Oooohhhh, id never mess with a swan. They look aesthetically pleasing and so graceful, but behind that beautiful exterior is a deceptively badass core that will kick the ass of anyone who messes with them.

The Canada Geese around our home do not like sharp, loud noises. You can herd them (slowly) by walking toward them while clapping your hands.
Repeatedly slapping your knees can also work.
Either way it is unclear who looks funnier--the geese or you.

Michael Gira has repeatedly stated he took the moniker Swans as it described the sound he wanted best.[3] Gira's summation of the name follows along the lines of: "Swans are majestic, beautiful looking creatures. With really ugly temperaments."[3]

Well, that and a relative's grade school son was by a pond, a swan felt its territory threatened, and flash forward a few minutes the kid's grandfather had to beat the swan in the head with a cane to get the swan to let go of the clamp it had with it's beak on his grandson's pants (and yes - the part of his pants where the noodly bits are stored)
