Canada Goose goslings with a parent
Branta canadensis
Canada Goose · Green-Wood Cemetery · 16 May 2026

A brood of goslings at the water's edge at Green-Wood with an adult standing guard behind.
Canada Goose families sometimes merge into loose creches once the goslings are mobile, several broods and a handful of adults moving and feeding together. It dilutes the risk to any one gosling from a predator, and this group looks larger than a single clutch would usually produce.
Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
