Friend or Foe?

I run by a golf course several times a week.  There is a large pond with ducks and geese.  Without fail, there are always geese hanging out on the sidewalk.  As I get closer, there is one that tucks his head and charges straight at me.  I don't slow down or change my course.  He never gets too close, but he starts honking and pretty soon the whole group is making a bunch of racket!

Yesterday morning I decided they weren't trying to attack me or protect their territory - they were cheering me on!  It's all in how you look at things.
