I love your Home Depot babies!!! They are SO cute! Momma Goose seems very proud indeed! She must feel very safe , letting you so close. That must be fun to be around them at work. The Home Depot here has no such attraction.
I only go as far as the barricade, so she doesnt freak out to much A lot of people have had Papa goose try to attack them, but not me. She just hisses at me.
They are so cute, Bip! Thanks for sharing with us. Look at Momma -- she looks a bit unhappy. I love how she's shielding them with her big wing in the 1st pic. Very wonderful!
I was about to ask you if the eggs had hatched yet. Great photographs of the new babies Jen. Now let's hope no-one disturbs them and they all grow up without any problems.
Thank you so much for the update.They are so adorable and well protected.I do hope they leave the wire up for next time.
This area has plenty of (man made) ponds Sadly, managment put a piece of lattice over the nest area so the geese couldnt return, and I havent seen the babies since :'( I have seen plenty of adult geese around the store, but since they all look alike to me I couldnt tell if any where Mama or Papa. I was hoping to watch the babies grow up *sigh*
