One time, I was walking along the sidewalk next to some geese. They were so close that the intrusive thoughts won, and I tried to poke it. It hit me with its wing and left me with a nice bruise :(

If you successfully poked it, was it kinda soft? They look kinda floofy.

The feathers are quite silky, but it was surprisingly hard underneath, at least on the wing.
