They are highly adaptable birds found in a variety of habitats, often spotted in lakes, rivers, and urban parks. Canada geese are migratory and known for their V-shaped flying formation. This behavioral adaptation plays a crucial role in conserving energy during long flights. The species is also famous for its strong familial bonds, as depicted in this artwork, where the mother leads and protects her goslings—a common sight that signifies the arrival of spring.
