More Birds from This Weekend-Canadian Geese!

Forgot to post these along with the others from yesterday's Roosevelt Farm Day. These are Canadian geese on the lawn of Bellefield- the Morgan/Newbold home here in Hyde Park. Enjoy.

We seem to have more CANADA (not Canadian) geese than pigeons in the Denver area. I just love them.

I don't think I've ever seen a Canada goose. Will have to look them up.

The correct term for the goose we're both talking about is Canada Goose, not Canadian Goose. I made the mistake of calling them Canadians for years until I was corrected.

Oh, okay! Thank you for the correction! However, if you look up "Canadian goose" on Dictionary.com, you will find that this is an acceptable variation. At least I now know that Canadian and Canada geese are one and the same.

See? I didn't know that Canadian was an acceptable variation. We've both learned something today!
