    What are baby geese called? Goslings? It's like they are just sunning themselves in the grass. Beautiful!

    You definitely do not want to get too close to the babies. I tried to get a photo of a baby swan and the mother came hissing at me and scared me to no end. Great photo!

    We have geese in our lake...they can be scary even when they're not protecting their babies :) We made the mistake of breaking out some bread one day and were literally overtaken by geese ;) My husband had to actually pop one on its beak bc it wouldn't leave our youngest alone :) We don't try to feed them anymore...we just enjoy them from a distance :):) Great photo!

    She has a lot of babies, ten or a dozen of them? They are definitely protective.

    They are adorable, but I am glad that you didn't get too close, because the mommas can be mean!

    Adorable little group. And yeah, they bite! I had a mama goose bite my hand last year when I got close to a hatchling.

    They're so cute! I agree with the not getting too close - geese can be mean.

    So fuzzy and adorable. Not that much fun as adults. But still beautiful flying across the sky.

    There are always Canada geese in the small lake down the hill from us. The other day we had to stop and wait on the road while a goose family strolled casually across the road. Luckily everyone watches for them. This family is really cute.
