Is a pretty bird?

One of the geese we feed started coughing/sneezing (video attached but there was also quieter coughing), I also saw something come out on a couple of the sneezes, is this something of concern?

Coughing/Sneezing

Goose babies are the best babies

This canadian goose in the park came near looking at me and I noticed she has a bump on her leg and is limping. When she walks, she kind of holds up that leg. It may be that it asked me for help as much a gopse can ask a man

Is there anything I can do ?

Limping goose

Changing direction

Hoping someone will be able to tell me if this is a domesticated goose Or a species that I don’t know about?

Hybrid Goose among flock of Canadian Geese?

There were a few nests back in April. And one of them had a mom sitting on it, (and sadly her spouse was killed by a car that week... jerk human), I remember seeing her there on Wednesday but then a couple of days later she was either sitting or wandering around nearby. (Her eggs were hatched with shells nearby) Didn't think much of it that day, did a lil research and had a horrid thought that her babies got hurt or were eaten. Friday afternoon she was sitting near a storm drain and immediately my thoughts were on the drain 😰, peeked and saw 6 lil babies huddled at the bottom. I looked like a dork fishing them out but it was worth it. Fire department didn't care, nor did wildlife rescue, both said; "it's not my job to go down storm drains". I made a improv net with a shopping bag, yarn and leather steering wheel cover. Some nice guy came over and had a super long broom and got first 3 up and while he was fishing for the other 3, I was holding the little ones away from storm drain. As soon as the other 3 were brought up, the first 3 jumped in the bag with their siblings. Then I took all 6 of them to the lake across the water to try and reunite them with mama (she was couple of buildings away). Someone thought that the pair nearby were the parents but I was positive they weren't. All the chirping from the babies was heard loud and clear by a goose in the distance. She starts coming over and when I crossed the road and she changed direction to me so I KNEW that she was their mama. so once she got close I stooped down and let the babies hop out. Mama was halfheartedly hissing at me and getting little cobra chickies close to her. She was already grieving for her spouse I didn't want her to grieve again cause of her lost babies. If it's something I can do, I'll do it. And the babies are so big now. I don't think they mind my company. Actually they appear out of nowhere when I get near a mall group of them. Kind of funny

Overjoyed mama

My boss calls it Howard. I call it Lucy. We don't know if it's a goose or gander lol. But we do know it's the only waterfowl on our 2,880 acre lake. Why? We don't know. But it's friendly and just likes to stand on the boat ramp all day and watch people putting boats in and taking them out.

Canadian Geese

the geese at my school

Ashley is a 3 week old American Buff. We were free ranging, they came to chill next to me while I was working, and did this sploot leg out combo. First time I've seen it!

That leg! 🤣

was in awe of how many beautiful little hybrids I saw, I was concerned that Murphy was too solitary as i never saw him in a flock before today but hes recently been a lot more active and social and im so relieved!! the last photo with the hybrid was really stunning but unfortunately too shy for me to get a good photo of it, its chest pattern was beautiful and so unique to the other hybrids

We should normalize calling Canada Goose Goslings Cobra Chicks.

Cobra Chickens and a Cobra Chick

1) Zombie Pirate Baby. She got an eye infection as a tiny fluffy gosling and has lived two years now as a cyclops. I can spot her when she’s out on the water because she holds her head very high and swims in circles to see all around. She will come right up to me now because she knows I have berries for her specifically and that I’ll keep the other geese from charging her blind side.

2) Swiggity Swoose the Domestic Swan Goose. He’s well integrated into the flock and despite being a domestic species he wants nothing to do with people. He keeps 3-4 rows of Canada geese between himself and any human beings and won’t even come near for food. 

3) Gene the Genetic Anomaly. Something’s going on with this guy. He’s a little shorter and thicker than the other geese; he has an odd staggering walk because his legs are a little splayed out, and he’s got that little short, blunt beak.  He’s the least aggressive goose I’ve ever seen; he doesn’t fight for food or hiss at people. Just hangs his odd little head and wobbles away.
