r/geese

I captured this video of these super honkers in Calgary’s Prince’s Island Park.

I’ll post part 2 tomorrow.

And the bar-headed geese had 3 babies!

Video taken by me in Calgary’s East Village along the Bow River.

I just wanted to show you guys the goslings they are now 28 days
do you feed your goslings extra?
i have them in my pond and a big meadow where they eat the whole day and I think they get all the nutrients that they need. But i was wondering if they need some kind of supplement or something.
I am really amazed how fat these little guys get by almost eating only grasses and herbs sometimes they eats snails too.
The smaller one has are big belly i hope he or she don’t get a joint problem in the future.
When they have all they feathers I am going to take a swim in the river with them. That is nearby my house. I think it’s going to be fucking cool.
Okay bye bye

He’s so soft!

This mom has been nesting in our pond for 6+ years now. Today was their first time out of the nest, but only 2 babies to show. With all the storms and I’m pretty sure this is husband #2, it’s been a rough spring for her so glad she at least had a couple. Hopefully the snapping turtles dont pick them off like they did a few last year 😬

Saw this little family at the park yesterday. One of the domestic geese seems to have become a third parent to these Canada goose babies! They all hung together and acted like a little family unit the whole time I was there, it was very cute. Glad these babies have some extra security!
