My World Tuesday

Click on the image to visit other worlds.


The geese have hatched, goslings are flocking to our shores! ("Scuse the pun!)


All of our birds like to sit on this berm at the lakehore.











They are so fuzzy and cute. The mom was quite vigilant. I heard our crow cawing, and she perked up and watched and listened. She continually scans the sky.




The goslings kindly kept on eating bugs. I threw out some cracked corn to boost their nutrition. It was too cold and windy for them to go up on the land and eat our clover. They sat under mom for hours, having a snooze.

  10. They are everywhere, but we only have one mom and 4 goslings. We are usually visited by two pairs and one singleton, Lonesome Charlie!

    They visit and then disappear. Kinda like the tourists!

    Thanks, all for visiting my wee goslings. They don't mind the cats,or me, but the crow worries them. They have been sitting on the pile of leaves for the entire day, in the pouring rain. Poor things. Mom is keeping them warm.

  11. Hi Jenn,
    I love the shot of the goslings running out of the water. Sounds as though your crow is jealous - he wants some of that corn.

  12. I agree, Barb! I don't think the crow would go after the goslings, do you? Cycle of life and all that...

  18. I've been trying to capture mallard chicks with my camera today but rain made it difficult. You've done an excellent job.

  19. Aren't they fun? It's true, though, like children you turn around and they are adults. Mom, Eva, tolerates me quite well now, but not anyone else, kinda like my husband's cats... one-person critters.

    Yes, that lead gosling might be the one that sat in the cold and the wind yesterday, everyone else was under mom's wings. Usually the male is around, too. I worry where Eddie has gone! Perhaps the w/e tourists have bothered him.

  25. I love your world full of goslings. With our bit if raun at last, the wild ducks are making mating noises. Our world down under is a bit up-side-down, winter id beginning and our cows arw calving, sheep are lambing and ducks are nesting. It all has to do with the fact of the country greening up after the autumn rains.

  26. How cute. The goslings are super cute. Thanks for sharing these with us.

  27. Those shots are wonderful. I hope to see some baby geese when I get back up the cabin, but usually they don't come out of the Hole until they are much larger. Maybe if I take my kayak back I'll see them along the muddy shore. - Margy
