Canada Goose (Branta canadensis)

Name: Canada Goose (Branta canadensis)
Kingdom:Animalia
Phylum:Chordata
Class:Aves

Observation: When I reach the geese, an image popped into my head of the geese I sometimes see crossing the road ever so slowly stopping traffic and how they are in groups.  These geese pictured here in the water are in groups as well and I wonder do they travel that way all of the time.  I can't think of a time when I saw a goose alone and if it was alone it was walking across to join a group of geese.  Interesting.
