Canada Goose
Branta canadensis
45.0022, -93.1214
Field Notes
Description:
This large goose has a predominately brown body, white belly and breast, and black neck and head with a white "chinstrap." There are a number of different subspecies; the photo is of the "giant" subspecies.
Habitat:
Canada geese need two things. Water and grass. While traditionally found in wetlands and pastures, Canada geese have found suburban lawns and ponds in parks suitable habitat as well; much to the chagrin of suburbanites who try to maintain a perfect lawn.
