Canada Goose goslings with a parent

A brood of goslings at the water's edge at Green-Wood with an adult standing guard behind.

Canada Goose families sometimes merge into loose creches once the goslings are mobile, several broods and a handful of adults moving and feeding together. It dilutes the risk to any one gosling from a predator, and this group looks larger than a single clutch would usually produce.

Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
