Flying V

The other day I was driving Flik home from school when he posed the following question:

Flik: Why, when geese fly, do they look like a check mark? 
Mommy: Well, we say that geese fly in a V. And the reason... 
Flik: Well, sometimes it looks like a V, but sometimes it looks like a check mark. (pause) And sometimes it looks like a W. (pause) You know, there are many different constellations of goose.
