What I meant by "edible"...is that there is no certain time when the Geese stroll by..and no certain time when I'm able or just want to relax on the Patio...so any old "Bread" I put into a plastic bag and keep it out there for the Geese whenever I see them/or I'm out there. Anything "edible" means anything you can eat...but we don't want to eat old bread, and the Geese don't mind eating the old bread. They even eat Squash, and probably anything else they can gobble up!
As far as the Raccoon, it was bigger than my doggie (a Pomeranian). I'm sure Raccoons (some of them) have Rabies....and think PFH was just "joking" about being poisonous....(he was referring to a snake that was on my patio) awhile back, a water moccasin, which is highly poisonous when they bite.
