There are\u00a0three pairs of adult\u00a0Canada geese staying at the ranch ponds this spring. \u00a0I wonder how many goslings will be there tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>My field guide for N. American birds says\u00a0they nest in Alaska and Canada. But then I checked the breeding map and saw an area\u00a0along the southern and central Rockies in the U.S. marked as a breeding area for them as well. They must like it here as much as I do.<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<dl id=\"attachment_799\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 310px;\">\n<dt class=\"wp-caption-dt\">\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-799\" title=\"may06\" src=\"http:\/\/condaily.com\/consworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009may05_9189.jpg\" alt=\"cute baby\" width=\"300\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/condaily.com\/consworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009may05_9189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/condaily.com\/consworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/2009may05_9189-100x150.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/dt>\n<dd class=\"wp-caption-dd\">cute baby on the creek bank<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning\u00a0at Lower Lake Ranch I found the Canada goose still sitting on the nest I&#8217;ve been watching.
