It is amazing how fast this baby Canada Goose grew! The first picture was taken on May 4 and the second May 24. I know its very unlikely that this is the same baby but for blog sake let's pretend it is.
I am a docent (and so was David) at Dickerson Park Zoo, part of what I do there used to involve helping in Education with Zoo class where we would walk multiple children down a long sidewalk fully loaded with duck poo, helping each child do the poo dodge to keep their feet neat and clean. I feel for people who have had bad experiences with them but I still love to see them, just maybe not over-populated in public places.
QUICK FACTS ON THE CANADA GOOSE:
ADULT WINGSPAN IS BETWEEN 4.2 TO 6.1 FEET
LONGEST WINGSPAN EVER RECORDED WAS REPORTEDLY OVER 7 FEET
MALE AND FEMALE MATE FOR LIFE
FEMALES ARE SMALLER THAN MALES
