This little gosling was sitting and eating the green grass, as her/his parents watched on and at one point one of the parents did come towards us stating that we were getting too close and we back off. When threatened by predators, they will attack together.
Canada Geese mate for life – unlike many other species they are loyal to a single mate with whom they share the parenting and flock protection responsibilities. They are also loyal to their extended family and community, travelling together as they return to the same nesting grounds year after year.
We as humans should take some insight from these amazing animals who are all in this together. When we start supporting and caring for those around us, we become stronger.
