Might be Uncle Fred visiting for the occasion or Grandma!!!!!!! Great shot! I have only caught this only once -- the small photo at the top of my blog shows the family I saw. . . in mine, mama is off to the side watching them swim!

Rune Eide said...

I enjoyed that one very much - a composition to aim for.

Rose said...

Aren't they adorable? I love all babies I guess, but fuzzy ones are certainly among the top.

Not so sure about the nanny... ;-) Cute, aren't they?

So cute! I'm not sure but Mama might want to watch that goose coming up from behind!

She might want a couple of gooslings for her own!

What a lovely photo. First time I have seen ducklings with a nanny....

The goslings are adorable, and the commentary cracked me up.

Good thing you cleared that up, I was asking who's the one tailing them.

Lovely lovely capture.

That is the chicken said...

Cute:D We saw a family of fourteen goslings last year!

Unknown said...

oh, what an adorable family! the other one is the grandmother.:D

Unknown said...

Beautiful shot!!!

I saw a family of geese down at the lake, recently ...there was an extra one tagging long with that groups as well. Perhaps your 'nanny' thought has merit :-)

Anonymous said...

No, that's Auntie...:)
Great family portrait.

Barb said...

How adorable! I'm surprised the Mama and Papa let another goose so close to the goslings. My geese are constantly shooing their last year's goslings away. They don't let them within 2 acres!

Müge Tekil said...

Oh that's adorable! :-)

Christine Gail said...
