Canada Geese are called by [so many] blokes, birds,tweet, tweet, CANADIAN geese. I wonder why? It wasn't until recently that I learned to not say CANADIAN.
Don't ever treat a family of Canada Geese, with disrespect. If you come up to the goslings (baby C. geese) too quickly, the mother might attack you. I saw the mother of a brood of goslings bent down her head and raise her wings, like elbows up to the sky. Her beak was open wide and with a HISS she charged this toddler who ran to see the babies. Fortunately for that wee human his father was quicker than the mother Canada Goose. He snatched that child up before Mama defended her brood.
I saw a brood of goslings in the middle of a small country road once, the parents hissing and getting angry at anyone who decided to discuss the situation.
I once saw a Canada Goose cross a road, where the traffic speed was 50 mph. The goose was going, 1 mph. The car coming at this goose, went into the shoulder to get around this bird. The bird stood still andstarted discussing it.
What a confident bird! When they talk they HONK HONK HONK.
Flocks of Canada Geese travel overhead. They are a triumphant V in the sky, except... where they going? Why do Canada Geese live on the East Coast of the USA? Shouldn't they be in Canada?
Maybe they got lost, didn't have a map in the glove department (the V-car)... haha, joke.
One time, a pair of Canada Geese run across my roof and then leap into the air to fly. It was like bulls stamping across the ground. I live in a Mobile Home so whenever any bird or animal runs across my roof the sound is more ... obvious. Rain are bullets on this roof.
Saw a Canada Goose and a British Crow face-off over in Kensington Gardens in London. They both were standing sideways staring at each other, their legs bent. The Crow bent his head towards the Goose, the Goose responded by moving his head and body towards the Crow. The Crow then quickly and decisively moved his head and body AWAY from the Goose. Neither moved their FEET at all during this encounter. IT was a dance!
C. Goose is the only bird I've seen make a Crow - polite!
