Finally, it’s BirdingPI.com’s consensus staff favourite yearly post, Canada Goose babies! Yay! By the road at Sidewalk Trail east trailhead (by Misery Bay), Presque Isle State Park, last Saturday afternoon on Global Big Day, in light rain.
Very unusually, this brood consisted of at least 16 goslings. That’s a lot of baby geese! Typical numbers are 5-10, but occasionally possible for two broods to merge, which is probably what happened here.
Awwwwww how cute!
