This goose walked by me while I sat on a park bench. When it walked in front of me it was no more then 3 feet away. As it walked by I got to see some part of the gooses foot. It was right behind it's webbed feet.
This day my Natural History class was practicing sketching, so instead of taking a picture I drew out this Canadian Goose.
Found the goose walking by a small pond. It is a overcast day with blue/gray clouds. Slight drizzles, but not frequent. Upon my arrival the goose (who was standing next to the pond) went into the pond; it seemed weary of my presence. The whole time I was observing the goose it never went farther than 9 feet from the shore. Every once in a while it would guzzle water into its mouth. The picture I drew is the goose in the water because I primarily saw it swimming. The pond itself is 50% surrounded by tall shrubs and trees and further out from there it is mostly grass. There are over 20 ducks in this pond, but they are on the opposite side and would have been harder to draw. I did not identify the ducks. No other goose was found in this area, but there was lots of goose poop on the ground so I assume they visit this location frequently. As soon as I left the goose returned to the shore to peck at the ground some more.
These duck was resting,interesting I would get close and it wouldn't move. It's whole face is black an a spot that's white in his neck.the whole body is brown and the bottom of its body is white
The Canada Goose (Branta canadensis) is a wild goose belonging to the genus Branta, which is native to Arctic and temperate regions of North America, having a black head and neck, white patches on the face, and a brownish-gray body. It is quite often called the Canadian Goose, but that name is not strictly correct, according to the American Ornithologists' Union.
