STOPS ALONG THE WAY

Young Canada Goose

5 Comments

We decided to walk along the river in search of a breeze as the temperature continues to rise. Not much relief there but we did see some birds including this juvenile Canada Goose. He’s beginning to lose his down and acquire juvenile plumage. His parent wasn’t far behind; they remain with their parents for about a year.

    They grow so fast… Exponentially!

    I see he has a few real feathers coming in. Love to see young birds growing up successfully. They face so many dangers in that vulnerable stage.
