I'd love it if we got Canada geese, but I've never seen one here. Arizona, especially southern Arizona, attracts a huge number of birds, either residing, flying over, or just visiting for the winter.

We don't have nearly the variety you do, but I've seen a lesser heron and a grebe (I think) and most curiously, some sort of sandpiper (we are nowhere near the coast). And a varying number of Canada geese.
