Hello birders,

yesterday we had a goose show on the webcam. Is it possible that all those birdies are the offspring of the resident breeding pair? More than 10 goslings???? We did never see small chicken.
Cammers would appreciate if somebody could elucidate the mystery :?

Must say, these guys were cute, we spent quite a while just watching them at the Biyamiti weir in June of this year.
