Afternoon Bath

Southern Vancouver Island

Canada Geese facts: While many people only hear the trademark “honk” when geese make noise, there is evidence that Canada geese can communicate with different sounds. Scientists believe that there are as many as 13 different Canada goose calls for things like greetings, warnings and contentment.

Canada geese may be one of the most talkative animals after humans. Goslings, or baby geese, begin communicating with their parents while still in the egg. Once hatched, there is also evidence that they respond differently to different calls and noises from their parents, indicating a sophisticated level of communication. ~ Ducks Unlimited Canada
