- It was a nice peaceful morning on the pond with one couple of Canada Geese enjoying themselves, when out of the blue comes another couple, wanting to claim the pond for themselves. I am not sure what pair has claimed the pond at this moment. Very interesting behavior that I had never witnessed before.
this pond is not big enough for both of us..
beginning of the breeding season. Canada Geese become VERY aggressive as spring approaches. In Northern California, this starts around mid-February and continues until after the goslings hatch.
Beautiful view
What's the origin of these geese?
Canada, but they go all over the western world.
Can somebody explain what the behaviour at 4:41 means ? It seems to be some sort of pair binding thing ?
It’s a mating thing, like when a mating male cat bites the neck of the female … to keep her from getting away … he’s just confirming that’s his girl, lol. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
@@Momcat_maggiefelinefan Makes sense, thanks !
The big ducks are duking it out. Even Canada geese are fighting, even up in the air while in flight.
No boxing gloves required for Canada geese brawl.
Greetings from New York. Love your video. Agressive Geese. Thank you for sharing. Really appreciate it.
Geese get especially hissy as spring approaches, because they want to nest and the hiss means, well ' keep the hiss away from here"
Look at the date ...They are sorting out territory for THAT time of year .In my home city of Manchester this behaviour happens each year as each want their spot .Very loud like these and amazing to watch .Prefer the geese to Man U Fans.Fabulous birds and NOT for eating :)
Maybe all four geese don't like each other. Maybe they wind up for a four course goose dinner.
LOL David!
More like goose brawl.
My birthday 😅😅
Aggressive behavior not unusual. When feeding Canadian geese bread pieced they would bite each other to get at the pieces. Copper Harbor, UP Michigan, Lake Superior.
It's like West Ham/Millwall.
Turf war goose edition
Some nesting pairs have very large areas they claim, while some others will nest close to each other.
Canada geese are very smart and aren't "mean" at all like a lot of people claim. One month out of the entire year, they *might* attack a person to defend nesting area. If you show them you're not a threat, or even befriend them, many will not even get upset if you get close to their nest. I had a goose who would regularly get off of her eggs to come over for a brief snack before going back to sit on their eggs. Wonderful birds.
2:04 lol
