EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph captured by Marie Read, the fierce territorial battle of two Canada geese unfolds in early spring. These magnificent creatures, known as Branta canadensis, are not holding back as they engage in a high-stakes dispute over their coveted territory. With water droplets flying and wings flapping furiously, these true geese showcase their wild side with an impressive display of aggression. The picturesque backdrop of Ithaca, New York sets the stage for this thrilling avian showdown. As members of the animal kingdom's vibrant bird community, these waterfowl demonstrate their assertiveness and determination to protect what is rightfully theirs. Their intense rivalry echoes throughout North America's eastern shores as they establish boundaries and defend their precious territories. Marie Read's exceptional photography captures every moment of this dramatic confrontation - a testament to her skillful eye for capturing wildlife behavior up close. This remarkable image serves as a reminder that even amidst serene landscapes like those found in New York state, nature can be both beautiful and fiercely competitive. So next time you spot Canada geese gracefully gliding across the water's surface or hear their distinctive honking calls overhead, remember that beneath those elegant feathers lies a world filled with fascinating stories of survival and dominance.
