good job, mama goose!

Just over a month ago, we went to Mitsuwa and below a walkway out back overlooking the Hudson, we spotted a nesting goose, with papa-to-be standing guard close by.

April 24th

Emily was very excited by this and couldn't wait to see what happened. A few days ago we went back and went straight to the nest to see what was up -- and what did we find?

May 23rd - ta da!

Three fluffy little goslings, and two proud parents. I swear, Emily was as proud and as excited as if they were her own little hatchlings. Good job, mama goose!

  2. Aren't they! We were all excited. There was another family (also 3 goslings) around the corner from them, theirs had obviously hatched a few days earlier, so that was fun to see as well. Emily of course wants to go back every week to watch them grow!!
