The maple leaf is the centrepiece of the Canadian Flag and is arguably the nation's most recognized symbol at home and abroad. With ten different maple species growing across Canada, there are bound to be maple trees near every lake or pond where Canada geese live. Just like the widespread maple, the Canada goose is another icon that's found from coast to coast, even flying as far north as the Arctic during the summer. In true Canadian fashion, the Canada goose is steadfast and strong, and fiercely loyal with breeding pairs remaining together for life.
