Had to go offroad to get these pics today, as the parents have moved their youngun's further upstream, and I couldn't see them from the road. They are starting to turn grey but, they are still fuzzballs, just a little bigger...... nge
 
Have they given any indication that they would attack you? These are similar to the nasty, mean tempered one that lives at the neighborhood duck near our home. Thanks for sharing. Kelley (Texas) :)
 
I can't seem to escape the beady eyes of those geese. No matter what pond, lake, or river I hike near around here they are there...
 
No Kelly they don't appear to want to attack me, but the older one laying in the grass did give me a warning "hiss". For crying out loud, I was over 100 feet away. But they do, protect their young. Put up a picture of the "mean" one, so I can be sure we are talking about the same species. Unfortunately around here and in this state, if the Canadian geese or Mallard ducks are crossing a road, you must not take revenge on the geese and mow them down:punch: even if their deceased bodies would feed hundreds of homeless people. You MUST stop your vehicle and wait till they are safely on the other side. There is a local cat that regularily trys stalking them, he pretends to be sneaking up on a couple (they know he's there) they lead him away from the young uns, while the rest of the flock slowly encircle him from behind. They follow every step the cat takes. It is funny when the cat realizes what's going on, and stops his stalk and leaves. Some day I will have to video the comedy.........nge
 
In the River behind my home, there are quite a few Geese with young ones right now. Mostly they have three or four babies to each family. There is one Pair, that have 16 babies! Yes, 16! It is quite a sight to see them swimming by the dock, or walking in a group on the mudflats at low tide.
 
beautiful pictures!
