The Canada Goose is a large, widespread goose species native to North America, easily identified by its black head and neck with a prominent white 'chinstrap'. It is highly adaptable and found in various habitats.
Where to spot
Ubiquitous across North America, found in parks, lakes, agricultural fields, and urban areas. Introduced populations also exist in parts of Europe and other continents.
How to spot
Easily spotted near water bodies, grazing in open grassy areas, or flying overhead in V-formations. Listen for their characteristic honking calls. Their size and bold head pattern are key identifiers.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round in many areas, though migratory populations are more visible during spring and autumn. Breeding occurs in spring and summer.

Canada Geese are known for their distinctive V-formation flight, which helps them conserve energy during long migratory journeys by reducing air resistance for trailing birds.
