            The Canada goose on the pond in Almansor park :)

The Canada goose (Branta canadensis), sometimes called Canadian goose, is a large wild goose, native to the arctic and temperate regions of North America, and it is occasionally found during migration across the Atlantic in northern Europe. It has been introduced to the United Kingdom, Ireland, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, New Zealand, Japan, Chile, Argentina, and the Falkland Islands. Like most geese, the Canada goose is primarily herbivorous. It's often found on or close to fresh water. The Canada goose is also common in brackish marshes, estuaries, and lagoons. Extremely adept at living in human-altered areas, Canada geese have established breeding colonies in urban and cultivated habitats, which provide food and few natural predators.

Gąska na stawie w Almansor Park :)

Bernikla kanadyjska (Branta canadensis) – gatunek dużego ptaka z podrodziny gęsi, pochodząca z arktycznych i umiarkowanych regionów Ameryki Północnej, czasami spotykana też w północnej Europie. Bernikle kanadyjskie już 300 lat temu trzymano w królewskich ogrodach. Często zamieszkują wielkomiejskie parki na Wyspach Brytyjskich. W Polsce są coraz powszechniej hodowane jako ptaki ozdobne w półotwartych hodowlach prywatnych. W naturze zamieszkuje rejon tundry, bagna lub prerie, zawsze jednak w pobliżu morskich brzegów, większych rzek albo jezior. Obecnie również łąki i pastwiska, a nawet parki miejskie, byle w pobliżu wody. Żywi się pokarmem roślinnym z domieszką zwierzęcego. Zdobywa go głównie na lądzie.
