Geese, Brooklyn Bridge Park

I've been told these are Canadian Geese, stopping off on their flight south. Anybody confirm this? (Careful where you sit...)

  1. Yup, Canadian Geese.

    I can't confirm their travel plans.

  2. Actually the are Canada Geese. You were close but for some reason they aren't Canadian, just Canada. My grandmother was a real stickler about this...

  3. They are indeed "Canada Geese", though probably not "Canadian Geese". There is a resident population in BBPark that doesn't seem to migrate. Global warming + easy access to handouts = year-round resident geese.

  4. Didn't you notice the hockey sticks and winter headgear? Eh?
