Five brand new goslings! There are still 2 roosting mothers on nests~so soon the lake should be filled with babies. These parents are never far from the goslings,I was hidden on the hillside so they didn't fuss too much. They have been staying back in the marshes that lead to the lake~away from people!

They are very protective and it almost looks like the one is warning something of that. Good one Ami, they are so darn cute.

I like the title of this wonderful shot, Ami. It's really cute with the goslings there. It looks like the Mom and Dad are honking up a storm. Excellent color and clarity, and composition.

Those cocked necks on the adults mean business I think! Cute little babies, will be fun to watch them grow.

Great shot and I love the angle Ami. The title is perfect and if they couldn't swim they would be in a little canoe with with umbrellas and singing old songs. I think the big fella plays the banjo. Excellent post.

Like your take on this one.
It's as if you're hiding out to get a shot of them.
Let's call it "Ambush Photography". LOL.
Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely precious!!! What a most awesome photo Ami...so sweet, and you were so fortunate to be able to get them on this. Well, all they care about is their new babies, they probably didn't even notice you were around. Bravo on this one.

Nice rare shot of the mother goose and babies and father goose. I don't think they will let you get closer. Great image - well done!
