Day-old Greylag Goslings at Falmer

They weren’t there yesterday, but today there were eight gorgeous fluffy greylag goslings being paraded around Falmer Pond by their proud and protective parents.

    Canada geese chicks are that cute when they are young. Then they grow up to bullies 😛 😀

      Hm, I remember there was an option to edit a comment, before. But maybe you’ve changed it. Anyway, if you want, you might change “gees” to “geese” 🙂

        The edit function should still be there, but I’ll take another look at the settings. Agree about Canada goose goslings… incredibly pretty.

          Darko, I’ve re-set the edit function. It should work. (it just did on this… took a moment or two to load)
