Description
These Canada Geese fly over our neighborhood on their way back to another lake for the night and are in groups at different times. This image is from the side of their formation and they were flying low as this was originally taken above the lake into the sunset. I have painted in acrylic some of this scene on canvas looking at the photo and then added more digital painting as well. The Canada goose (Branta canadensis) is a large wild goose species with a black head and neck, white cheeks, white under its chin, and a brown body. Native to arctic and temperate regions of North America, its migration occasionally reaches northern Europe. It has been introduced to the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, Argentina, Chile, and the Falkland Islands.[2] Like most geese, the Canada goose is primarily herbivorous and normally migratory; it tends to be found on or close to fresh water. Extremely successful at living in human-altered areas, Canada geese have proven able to establish breeding colonies in urban and cultivated areas, which provide food and few natural predators.
